A periodontally biocompatible fixed bridge designing – a case report

Tanuj Minocha, Nupur Rathi, Singh SP.


Abstract
A fixed partial denture is a prosthesis that is supported by natural teeth. In some cases, the partial edentulous arch presents a single standing abutment between two edentulous spaces, thus making the abutment less feasible to support a fixed prosthesis and a periodontal nightmare. We present a case of a 32-year-old patient who presented maxillary left second premolar as a pier abutment. The clinical situation demanded that two fixed partial dentures had to be fabricated with anterior fulfilling the requirement of aesthetics and posterior fulfilling the function of mastication. However, the most critical long term criteria were to design the prosthesis biocompatible to the periodontium. The multidisciplinary approach resulted in a semi-precision non-rigid connector design acting as a stress breaker to prolong the periodontal life of the pier abutment.

Key words: fixed- movable bridge, pier abutment, ceramic, metal restoration, precision attachment
