Fiber-reinforced composite resin (FRC) prostheses offer the advantages of good aesthetics, minimal invasive treatment, and an ability to bond to the abutment teeth, thereby compensating for less-than-optimal abutment tooth retention and resistance form. These prostheses are composed of two types of composite materials: fiber composites to build the framework and hybrid or microfill particulate composites to create the external veneer surface. This review concentrates on the use of fiber reinforcement in the fabrication of laboratory or chairsidemade composite-fixed partial dentures of conventional preparation. Other applications of FRC in dentistry are briefly mentioned. The possibilities fiber reinforcement technology offers must be emphasized to the dental community. Rather than limiting discussion to whether FRC prostheses will replace metal-ceramic or full-ceramic prostheses, attention should be focused on the additional treatment options brought by the use of fibers. However, more clinical experience is needed.
纤维增强复合树脂（FRC）修复体具有良好的美学效果、微创治疗以及与基牙粘结的能力，从而弥补了基牙保留和抗力形不理想的问题。这些修复体由两种类型的复合材料组成：纤维复合材料用于构建支架，混合或微填充颗粒复合材料用于制作外部贴面表面。本综述重点介绍了纤维增强在制作实验室或椅旁制作的常规预备复合固定局部义齿中的应用。本文还简要介绍了 FRC 在牙科其他领域的应用。纤维增强技术的可能性必须向牙科界强调。讨论不应该局限于 FRC 修复体是否会替代金属陶瓷或全陶瓷修复体，而应该关注纤维使用带来的额外治疗选择。然而，还需要更多的临床经验。
