Abstrakt: Objectives: There is a paucity of data on the outcome of fixed tooth- and implant-supported porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) and ceramic-based (CB) restorations fabricated during undergraduate dental education. Therefore, this retrospective study examined the outcome of fixed restorations placed in patients participating in an undergraduate program.
Methods: Patient records were searched for data on fixed PFM and CB restorations. For these restorations, the functional period in situ and technical and biological complications, namely restoration fracture, decementation, screw loosening, secondary caries, and loss of vitality, were recorded. Periodontal parameters were also documented. Kaplan-Meier survival and complication estimates after 1 and 5 years were calculated for restoration types, materials, designs (veneered/non-veneered), cementation/retention modes and localizations with group sizes ≥ 15. Regression models were used to analyze the influence of demographic data and abovementioned restoration characteristics on restoration survival, technical and biological outcome.
Results: 1196 restorations with a mean observation time of 5 years were included in the analysis. The different restoration types exhibited survival rates of > 90.8% after 5 years, accompanied by a favorable biological outcome. However, monolithic resin-matrix or feldspathic ceramic restorations were found to have a higher fracture rate than lithium disilicate or zirconium dioxide ceramic restorations resulting in lower survival rates for these restorations. Additionally, resin-matrix ceramic restorations showed a higher decementation rate than lithium disilicate restorations.
Conclusions: Fixed tooth- and implant-supported CB restorations fabricated from lithium disilicate and zirconium dioxide ceramics demonstrated better survival and lower complication rates than restorations fabricated from resin-matrix or feldspathic ceramics in an undergraduate dental education program.
Clinical Significance: Due to the more favorable outcome of CB restorations fabricated from lithium disilicate or zirconium dioxide ceramics, undergraduate dental education should focus on the application of these ceramics to increase restoration survival by reducing technical complications.
