1- Introduction
Fixed partial denture (FPD) is one of the most commonly used dental
solution for replacing missing teeth or restoring badly carious teeth
(dewan et al., 2022).
Poorly designed prosthesis (figure1) not only fails but also damages
the tooth and its supporting structures irreversibly. Poor patient selection
and improper execution of core buildup of tooth preparation, impression
taking and cementation leads to early complications and subsequent
failures in fixed dental prosthesis (Ijaz et al., 2022).
The margin of discrepancy results in the enhanced accumulation of
dental biofilm, microleakage, hypersensitivity, margin discoloration,
increased gingival crevicular fluid flow (GCF), recurrent caries, pulp
infection and, lastly, periodontal lesion and bone loss, which can lead also
to the failure of prosthetic treatment (Srimaneepong et al., 2022).

jaw registration and cementation will increase the risk of early
restoration failure) Briggs et al., 2012).
Also ambiguity in communicating the desired shades for esthetic
restorations to the technician are the responsibility of the
clinician(Rosenstiel et al.,2006).

thickness), over extend or under extend margin and shade mismatch
(zafar and Ghani, 2014).

failure reported. this is usually due to improper crown preparation and
heavy occlusal force This can be partially explained by the fact that
most of these restorations were found on posterior teeth which are
subjected to higher forces of mastication, thus having a higher chance
of dislodgement (Naz et al., 2020).

recur. Water-based cements mature after they have reached the defined
setting time. If they are allowed to mature free of contamination from
surrounding moisture and without loss of water, the cements increase in
strength and become more resistant to dissolution (Anusavice et al.,
2003).
While such a failure may result due to faulty cementation technique
or faulty fabrication, de-cementation of another wise perfect crown or
bridge usually occurs due to the use of sticky foods by the patient (Riaz
et al., 2018).

endodontic therapy and post preparation appears to be of major
importance, as the residual dentin helps in incorporating a ferrule. the
presence of tooth structure coronal to the finish line enhanced fracture
resistance (Mascarenhas et al., 2013).

properties of root canal dentin,
which might increase the
risk for root fractures [25–27].
Various obturation materials
and obturation techniques are
reported to have different
effects on fracture strengths of teeth
[12]. All of these
studies indicate that root canal
treatment has an effect on
the fracture strength of teeth.
The loss of structural tooth integrity associated with endodontic
access preparation is reported as a possible factor for the higher
occurrence of fractures. Irrigation solutions have adverse effects on the
physical properties of root canal dentin, which might increase the risk
for root fractures. Various obturation materials and obturation
techniques are reported to have different effects on fracture strengths of
teeth. this indicate that root canal treatment has an effect on the fracture
strength of teeth as an abutment in fixed partial denture (akman et al.,
2011)
5- Avoiding fixed partial denture failure
The replacement of crowns and bridges is a common procedure
for many dental practitioners. When correctly planned and executed,
13
fixed prostheses will provide predictable function, aesthetics and value
for money. However, when done poorly, they are more likely to fail
prematurely and lead to irreversible damage to the teeth and supporting
structures beneath. Sound diagnosis, good assessment ,technical and
clinician skills are essential for successful fixed restorations.
