Short Communication: Fracture Resistance of Acrylic Resin and Metal-Reinforced Acrylic Resin Distal Extension Cantilevers of Fixed Implant-Supported Prostheses
The International Journal of Prosthodontics, 09/26/08
Osswald MA et al. - The fracture resistance of acrylic resin and metal-reinforced acrylic resin fixed implant-supported prosthesis cantilever arms to linear vertical compressive forces was determined. Ten superstructures of each type were secured on 5 evenly distributed implants. Force was applied to the cantilever arms 15 mm distal to the distal-most implant, and 2 tests were conducted on each sample. In each sample, fracture of the acrylic resin was noted at the distal-most implant; however, in the nonreinforced samples, the acrylic resin fractured off completely, leaving the implants unaffected.
