All Ceramic Inlay-Retained Fixed Dental Prosthesis: a Literature Review
Objectives: To highlight important factors that influence the longevity and success of inlay-retained fixed dental prostheses (IRFDPs) such as treatment plan, appropriate case selection with proper indications, as well as tooth preparation and to derive recommendations regarding their clinical application.
Methods: A case report discusses the indication, preparation design, and choice of material.
A research was conducted in the Pubmed in English and time filters (articles published from 2011) included relevant journals and review articles.
Results: Inlay retained fixed dental prostheses provide a minimally invasive treatment option, particularly when implant placement is not possible.
For fully veneered zirconia-based IRFDPs, a large incidence of complications and poor survival were observed revealing a need for further design improvements as same as lithium-disilicate ceramic IRFDP which had a high clinical failure.
However, monolithic zirconia resin-bonded FDPs performed well for the short-term follow-up period.
Conclusions: A three-unit IRFDP is a viable treatment option for replacing a posterior missing tooth. Appropriate case selection, abutment preparation, material choice, and luting procedures may be decisive for clinical success.
