Abstract

This study evaluated the performance of indirect, anterior, surface-retained, fiber-reinforced-composite restorations (ISFRCR). Between September-2011 and September-2012, 17 patients (13 females, 4 males, mean age: 40.5) received 17 indirect ISFRCRs (maxilla=4; mandible=13). All restorations were made on a plaster model using unidirectional E-glass fibers (Interlig, Angelus) in combination with a veneering resin composite (Gradia, GC) and cemented adhesively (Choice 2, Bisco). No cavity preparations were made on the abutmentteeth. Bef
