PERIODONTAL BREAKDOWN periodontal breakdown may lead to loss of abutment
Patient suffer from;
- Mobility of abutment
- Periodontal pocket formation
- Periodontal abscess
- Pain which prevent mastication at the side of restoration
- Bad odor and taste
![Page 14: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Periodontal breakdown may be due to;
1. Inadequate abutment teeth in long span bridge.
2. Periodontally affected abutment teeth.
3. Patient with poor oral hygiene.
4. Poor marginal adaptation.
5. Over or under contour of axial walls
6. Extensively large connectors that restrict the cervical
embrasure.
7. Pontic with large contact area on edentulous ridge.
8. Improper or absence of proximal contact causing
food impaction and periodontal pocket formation.
9. Irregular or rough cervical margin of prosthesis.

MECHANICAL FAILURE
1. Cementation failure; looseness and/or dislodgment of
restoration, it could be due to
a- Cement failure
b- Retention failure
c- Occlusal problems
d- Different degree of abutments mobility
2. Restoration failure ( retainer, pontic, or connector )
3. Occlusal wear or perforation
![Page 35: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
1- Cementation Failure
a- Cement failure This could be due to;
1- Cement selection
2- Expired cement
3- Clinician not follow manufacturer’s instructions
4- Incomplete removal of temporary cement
5- Inadequate isolation
6- Inclusion of cotton fibers
7- Incomplete isolation
8- Insufficient pressure seating
![Page 36: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
1- Cementation Failure b- Retention failure This could be due to;

3- Misfit
4- Misalignment
![Page 37: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

2- Occlusal perforation
3- Parafunctional activity
4- Loss of occlusal contacts
![Page 38: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
1- Cementation Failure d- Different degree of abutments mobility
This induce stresses on the cement which lead to
cementation failure
![Page 39: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
How to confirm cementation failure?
1- Pull the restoration margin and
see for movement of it.
2- Bubbles come out of the margin
or perforation (if present) when the
restoration pushed by occlusal
pressure
![Page 40: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
2- Restoration Failure
a- Retainer failure;
- Perforation
- Marginal discrepancy
- Veneering separation, fracture or wearing
![Page 41: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

b- Pontic failure;
- Pontic fracture (Porcelain) with unfavorable occlusal
load
- Limited occlusocervical height due to over eruption
![Page 44: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
c- Connector failure;
![Page 45: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

This could be due to;
1- Improper designing of connector size and position
2- Thin metal at the connector
3- Incorrect selection of solder
4- Porosity
![Page 48: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Occlusal wear or perforation
Heavy chewing, clenching or Bruxism
wear of restoration
perforation of occlusal surface of
the metal restoration
Leakage, cement dissolution & caries
![Page 50: Failure of fixed prosthodontics](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052211/58ced0131a28abd4098b4917/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Esthetic Failure ► Improper shade matching ► Insufficient tooth reduction ► Disharmony between restoration and neighboring
teeth
► Improper masking of metal by esthetic material ► Use of improper shade of cement with all ceramic
restoration
► Unnecessary display of metal in case of partial veneer metal restoration
► Improper marginal adaptation, form, roughness, or extension which lead to gingival inflammation
causing unnatural soft tissue color

Maintenance Failure
Poor oral hygiene and improper maintenance of a well
done restoration may lead to failure of prosthesis.
The patient must be fully informed about his responsibility
in success or failure of restoration
The dentist must recall the patient for periodic clinical and
radiographic examination to detect early any harmful
changes that might occur.
