[Reexamination of cantilever bridges-a cross-section study].

Abstract

In the present study reexaminations of 28 cantilever bridges and 26 conventional bridges were carried out. The aim was to evaluate the periodontal conditions and to give recommendations for use. Parameters were PI, GI, tooth mobility, pocket depth, gingival recession and BOP. Deducing from the results, which were statistical analysed, we recommend the cantilever bridges by right using. Special attention should be directed to antagonistical dentition.
