[Research progress and clinical application of veneer materials for implant-fixed restoration in edentulous jaws].

Commonly used materials for fixed restorations in edentulous jaws include acrylic resins, polymerized ceramics, ceramics and zirconia, which have distinct physicochemical properties and clinical application features. The selection of these materials in clinical practice is related to the prosthodontic space, oral soft and hard tissue conditions, occlusal force, lifestyle habits, oral parafunctions, opposing dentition materials, and expectations of patients. Common mechanical complications associated with fixed restorations in edentulous jaws are cracking/chipping and abrasion of the facing materials, which can be avoided through occlusal adjustment, restoration design and processing, and the selection of appropriate restorative materials. This article reviews the characteristics, selection, and design considerations of commonly used materials for fixed restorations in edentulous jaws, as well as the causes and management of common clinical complications related to restorative materials, aiming to provide references for the selection of appropriate materials in fixed restorations for edentulous jaws in clinical practice.
