Abstract

  Background: Tooth loss occurs at all ages, causing a disturbance to the chewing system, affecting the life quality of the patients and the restoration of enough teeth is essential. A new minimally invasive method applied to reconstruct tooth loss is fiber-reinforced composite fixed partial dentures. Objective: To evaluate the results in a tooth loss treatment using fiber-reinforced composite fixed partial dentures on patients treating at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in 2018-2020. Materials and method: Uncontrolled clinical trial on 58 patients including 23 males and 35 females aged 16 to 60 years old with 64 prosthetic units 39 anterior and 25 posterior bridge at Can Tho University of Medicine Hospital after 6 months follow up from March 2018 to May 2020. Results: After installation, 9.,4% achieved good results. After 6 months, 1.6% that had poor durability, 92.2% achieved good results. Conclusion: fiber reinforced composite fixed partial dentures were a good option for restoring lost teeth.
