Sažetak
INTRODUCTION: The demand for all-ceramic restorations has increased substantially because of their esthetics and biocompatibility. However, the indication for a fixed partial denture has been limited by numerous problems such as low breaking strength of conventional dental ceramic and complex manufacturing techniques. Procera AllCeram is a CAD/CAM system for complete
ceramic restorations with a dry-sintered high-purity aluminium oxide core.Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine whether the Procera ceramic fixed partial denture is an acceptable treatment modality.Material and methods: Nine patients were treated with a total of ten fixed partial dentures of three units. The restorations were constructed with bilateral support and one pontic, according
to the Procera AllCeram technique. The California Dental Association quality evaluation system was used for assessment of marginal integrity and esthetics after two years.
RESULTS: Nine of ten fixed partial dentures (90%) showed no defects and were functioning well after two years. No caries or signs of gingivitis or periodontitis exceeding those found.
CONCLUSION: The study confirms that for the observation period of two years, fixed partial dentures made by the Procera AllCeram method seem to be an acceptable treatment alternative.
