| Three unit inlay bridge Step-by-step:
- The beginning situation from the side. Tooth 24 was extracted.
- The occlusal view of the dentition after extraction of tooth 24.
- Old composite fillings were removed from the teeth 23 and 25. The
working area was covered with a Rubber dam and proximal space
separated with a plastic strip and woodchock. The old composite
filling in the tooth 26 could have been removed also, but, in this
case, it wasn’t necessary.
- The bridge frame was made with direct method: first the
Perma Fibers were wetted with
light-curing resin (see the users instructions for crowns and
bridges). Teeth were etched, treated with primers and adhesives, and
some flow composite was added on the bottom
of the cavities. First Fiber bundle
was placed from the cavity of tooth 25 to a distal cavity in the tooth
23.
- The second Fiber bundle was
placed from the cavity of the tooth 25 to the buccal side of the tooth
23. Use as many bundles of Fiber as
possible, but at least one layer for one pontic, to increase the
strengthening effect. In this case two bundles were sufficient
- Complete the bridge by veneering the pontic tooth with composite.
- Occlusal view of the ready bridge.
- A ready bridge from the side.
