Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the survival and complication rates of fixed partial dentures (FPDs) after an observation period of at least 5 years

TL;DR: The present study was done to determine the long-term success and survival of fixed partial dentures (FPDs) and to evaluate the risks for failures due to specific biological and technical complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the survival and complication rates of fixed partial dentures (FPDs) after an observation period of at least 5 years - II: combined tooth-implant-supported FPDs
TL;DR: It was evident from the present search that tooth-implant-supported FPDs have not been studied to any great extent and hence, there is a definitive need for more longitudinal studies examining these reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the survival and complication rates of fixed partial dentures (FPDs) after an observation period of at least 5 years - IV: cantilever or extension FPDs
TL;DR: It is indicated that survival and success rates of cantilever fixed partial dentures were lower than those of conventional end-abutment supported FPDs described in a review by Tan et al. (2004) and biological and technical complications were frequent.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the survival and complication rates of resin-bonded bridges after an observation period of at least 5 years.
TL;DR: Despite the high survival rate of R BBs, technical complications like debonding are frequent, which means that a substantial amount of extra chair time may be needed following the incorporation of RBBs, and there is an urgent need for studies with a follow-up time of 10 years or more, to evaluate the long-term outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Five-year retrospective study on success, survival and incidence of complications of single crowns supported by dental implants.
TL;DR: High survival rates (98.4%) for both the single tooth implants and the respective single crowns were demonstrated after 5.5 years, indicating that biologic and technical complications were frequent.
