Brief Summary
In recent years, zirconia-based implant-supported bridge designs have begun to be used more and more as an alternative to metal ceramic bridges. Another new material that has been introduced in the clinic is the high translucent monolithic zirconia, which has only been investigated a few follow-up studies with short follow up duration. The aim being to evaluate the clinical outcome of implant-anchored posterior bridges, made from
- 1.high-translucent monolithic zirconia,
- 2.zirconia ceramic with porcelain and
- 3.metal ceramics. The hypothesis is that high-translucent monolithic zirconia has lower rate of complications since surface porcelain veneering is not required.
