[QUOTE="ilsbadly, post: 278479, member: 4012"] I think the BDT bridges look great, however can someone please explain to me what the point of it is? This technique just seems a little over engineered, what benefit do you get over using a high end denture tooth? the teeth can be easily replaced if broken, and they can be stained to look 'more realistic' they are much cheaper to produce and they are arguably better for the opposing dentition, and having porc-porc on a F/F isn't advisable. Also the HPP subframe, if this does break what are the repair processes and costs for this? again what benefit does this material offer? its a better colour? metal is opaqued so isn't an issue. It's lighter? how many patients have you had that have had a full arch with metal substructure fitted thats said 'That feels heavy' I think I would feel much more comfortable with a metal framework than a plastic one if it was for my personal use.
