Why it matters for dental
This in-vitro study quantifies fracture resistance of contemporary CAD-CAM polymers used for 3-unit interim FDPs, giving practice owners and specialists data to decide whether these materials can reliably serve in load-bearing anterior or premolar spans.
Key points
- Study tested fracture load of interim 3-unit fixed dental prostheses made from current CAD-CAM polymers.
- Published online 25 September 2026 in The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry.
- Authors: Carlos A. Jurado, Francisco X. Azpiazu-Flores, Mark A. Antal, Silvia Rojas-Rueda, Damian J. Lee.
- Findings help clinicians select interim materials that balance strength with cost and chair-time savings versus conventional options.
