Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this retrospective clinical study was to evaluate the clinical acceptability of metal-ceramic fixed partial dentures (FPD) manufactured utilizing direct metal laser-sintering technology, taking into account the short-term, medium-term, and long-term outcomes. The Federation Dentaire International (FDI) World Dental Federation criteria were used to evaluate the esthetic, functional, and biological clinical acceptability of the patients who met the inclusion criteria

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Objectives: To evaluate the clinical success of laser sintered metal-ceramic restorations throughout several time periods, including the short, medium, and long term.

Materials and methods: Participants who had 3-unit metal-ceramic fixed partial dentures fabricated by laser sintering in the mandibular posterior region between 2014 and 2021 were evaluated. The FDI criteria were used to evaluate the esthetic, functional, and biological clinical acceptability of the patients who met the inclusion criteria. The surface luster was assessed and given a score in the field of esthetic properties. The functional parameters were assessed and rated based on fracture, marginal adaptation, radiographic examination, contact point/food impaction, and patient satisfaction. The biological parameters assessed and rated included tooth vitality, periodontal response, mucosa, and oral health. Following the examinations, each parameter was assigned a score ranging from 1 to 5. (1=Clinically excellent/very good, 2=Clinically good, 3=Clinically satisfactory, 4=Clinically unsatisfactory, 5=Clinically poor) Scoring between 1 and 3 was deemed clinically acceptable, whereas scoring 4 or 5 was deemed clinically unacceptable.

Descriptive statistical analysis was performed for all data.
