Retention and Durability of the Anterior Zirconia Wing Bridge
Sponsor: Roseman University of Health Sciences
Summary
This study is a clinical trial to determine the retention and durability of the anterior zirconia wing bridge. The type of zirconia-wing bridge the investigators are researching in this study has two wings which generally have three countersunk holes (meaning that the circumference of the outer portion of the hole is larger than the inner part of the hole). Composite resin (dental filling material) is placed in the holes as well as under and around the wings. Twelve patients will have bridges placed and be evaluated every 6 months (ideally) to determine if the bridge is staying in place (retention) and if it is resistant to fracture (durability).
