RESUMO
A fiber-reinforced composite inlay-onlay FPD was used for a single posterior tooth replacement in a patient refusing implant for psychological reasons. The FRC-FPD was made of pre-impregnated E-glass fibers [everStick, StickTeck, Turku, Finland] embedded in a resin matrix [Stick Resin, StickTeck, Turku, Finland]. The unidirectional glass fibers were used to make a framework structure with high volume design placed in the pontic [edentulous] region. To reproduce the morphology of natural teeth, the framework structure was then veneered with Gradia [GC, Tokyo, Japan]
