Great presentation Thank you for the time and efforts Under perfect situation could we just leave the incisal edges without preparation and just prep the lingual and proximal only?
Hello Dr. Thank you for the simplified illustration. My question is: can we attach the maryland bridge wings on crowned abutments? I know you don't place crowns on lower incisors, but this is an existing case. Thank you.
If the crowns are PVCs or some material that the zirconium or metal substrate will bond to, then yes, you could bone to an existing crown. I would remove the crowns and place a conventional fixed bridge if there are currently crowns on the abutment teeth. Why not? Take your practice to the Top Tier.

Hello dr . Thank you for the illustration . My question is : can we do 2 separate Mary land bridge for a missing 31 , 41 with one wing on the adjacent laterals ?
Yes, you can place adjacent Maryland bridges to replace 2 missing lateral incisors. I am not familiar with the numbering system you are using. I find Maryland bridges to be more long lasting to replace mandibular incisors than maxillary incisors because the biting pressure is more favorable in the mandibular anterior region. I do not use Maryland bridges in the posterior part of the mouth. Encourage the patient not to bite anything harder than a hamburger with their anterior teeth and to wear a Nightguard while sleeping. Place the Nightguard on the arch with the Maryland bridge. With this approach I have some very long lasting Maryland bridges. Be sure to inform the patient that a Maryland bridge is not thought of as a long lasting restoration, but it may be the best restoration if the patient is missing a mandibular incisor and an implant is not possible. You do not want to be responsible for maintenance and replacement of a Maryland bridge. That is especially true if the patient does not really take care of it with excellent home care, wearing Nightguard and not biting hard things on it. You do not want the patient's problem (the missing tooth) to become your problem (maintenance and replacement of a Maryland bridge). If the patient is willing to accept the total responsibility for maintenance and replacement of the Maryland bridge, then it can be a good restoration to replace a missing mandibular incisor.

very informative video Dr. Cutbirth. is the bondong of zirconia partially coverage restoration like the one you have done here predictable. in my practice i only use lithium disilicate restorations as bonded restoration. plz share your experience as i am always sceptical of doing marylands in all ceramics bz i m afraid about how long wil they last.
In my opinion, a Maryland bridge is always looked at as a non-permanent restoration. The longevity of the restoration depends greatly on where the MBridge is located and the ability of the patient not to bite anything harder than a tunafish sandwich on the bridge. I rarely place a Maryland bridge anywhere except the mandibular anterior to replace a missing incisor. Treated zirconia has worked well for me in these cases, but lithium disilicate is also good, just not as strong. Take your practice to the Top Tier.

Nice job, Dr Cutbirth. What do you think about a Maryland pontic for anterior-lower incisor all made with composite? Do you think that it still is going to work well?
I cannot comment because I have never used composite for a Maryland bridge. It does not sound like it would be very strong. I prefer a zirconia substructure covered with lithium disilicate (e-max).

I try to never place full crowns on lower incisors. Those teeth are too small and will eventually fracture at the gumline due to the circumferential 1.5mm tooth removal from the crown prep.
I'm a dental technician in Dallas Texas, thank you very much doctor for all your great videos they are very informative, great job on this maryland bridge, the shade could've been a little better 😊
As you know, matching a single central incisor is near impossible, especially with a Maryland bridge. I am presenting real dental cases in a real, full time practice, not some "ideal" case I spend hours going back and forth with a lab tech to create a "case for presentation" as many presenters do. For a lower central incisor on a Maryland bridge, I felt the shade match was extremely good. It's easy for dentists/technicians who do not present seminars or publish cases themselves to be critical because they do not realize how difficult the process is.
@@centerforard thank you Dr for taking the time to write back I agree with you on everything you said and for taking the time to educate us on a lot of this subjects one of my favorite videos is the one on fundamentals of occlusion, please keep them coming.
Normally, no, because there is too much lateral pressure on an upper cuspid. Feel M'land bridges are best to replace mandibular lateral and central incisors. Maryland bridges pretty well replacing upper lateral incisors if the patient is not a significant teeth grinder or bruxer, wears a nightguard while sleeping and doesn't bite hard things with the anterior teeth. I, personally, do not place Maryland bridges to replace any teeth but mandibular central and lateral incisors.
I feel almost everyone should wear a nightguard to prevent teeth wear and to protect restorations. Our daughters received night guards when they stopped growing at around age 16, In my opinion, nightguard is like brakes on your car. Take your practice to the Top Tier.

Hi Dr. I read that 2 wings will have higher chance of failing due to different tooth movement of two abutments. What do you think of single wing Maryland bridge?
I have had excellent results with Maryland bridges (2 wings) replacing single missing mandibular incisors. I cannot remember any of them becoming detached. I do not place Maryland bridges anywhere else to replace missing teeth. I have replaced some missing maxillary and mandibular lateral incisors in the past with 2 unit fixed bridges extending from the cuspids to the missing laterals with a full crown retainer on the cuspid. I would not suggest a "single wing" Maryland bridge with the wing cemented only to the lingual/palatal surface of a single adjacent tooth. That sounds very unstable. Remember, you want any restoration you place to hold up. You do not want to be decrementing or repairing restorations. Restorative failures cause the patient to loose confidence in you and it is costly for you to have to recement restorations. Be sure the patient has a night guard and knows not to bite hard things with any of their teeth, especially an area with a Maryland bridge or a cantilevered lateral incisor fixed bridge.

I, personally, do not place Maryland bridges to replace upper anterior teeth or posterior teeth because of the biting force in those areas. If a lower anterior tooth is being replaced, the biting force is "into" the arch alignment, versus an outward or facial direction force with the upper anterior teeth. My personal feeling is there is also too much biting force on posterior teeth for a Maryland bridge. Years ago I placed upper anterior Maryland bridges but have not placed one in that area in 20 years because of the issues I mentioned above. In some cases Maryland bridges would probably work, I just do not personally place them in those areas.
Sure. Normally, only the incisal 1/4 of the mandibular anterior teeth are seen when smiling or speaking, so "perfect" aesthetics is not as critical as with the maxillary anterior teeth. As with many things in life, it gets down to finances.

Hard to say. I am sure I cold and percussion tested the teeth prior to restoring them and they were vital. Certainly teeth are similar to trees, the nerve can "die" or become symptomatic years after a traumatic event.
No, I do not think Maryland bridges are good for missing canines or posterior teeth. They are best for missing lateral incisors. Maryland bridges are probably not a good restoration in areas that are under a lot of biting pressure. Take your practice to the Top Tier.

Maryland bridges in the maxillary anterior can be tricky. If the patient has a class 2 occlusion, and the mandibular anterior teeth do not touch the maxillary anterior teeth except in protrusive movement, an anterior maxillary Maryland bridge can work if the patient does not bite anything harder than a hamburger or tuna sandwich with the anterior teeth. The problem with a maxillary anterior Maryland bridge is the biting force angle. The biting force angle on maxillary anterior teeth is "outward," not "inward" into the teeth like the mandibular anterior teeth. The cement luting materiol tends to break loose over time if the patient contacts the maxillary Maryland bridge with the mandibular anterior teeth in CO, or if they just clinch on the bridge. You don't want to place something on the teeth that you will have to be recementing or repairing on a regular basis. It will cost you money and time and the patient will think you did not know what you were doing, even if it is their fault the bridge is breaking loose. In other words, the patient's problem has become your problem. I have placed my share of mandibular and maxillary anterior Maryland bridges, and my personal experience is the mandibular Maryland bridges predictably hold up for a long period of time if the patient is careful and wears a Nightguard. The maxillary Maryland bridges are much more prone to become loose. Take your practice to the Top Tier.

@@centerforard In regards, what do you think is the best option to replace missing tooth #9? I have a slight overbite so my teeth dnt touch directly. Dental implant is way too expensive…What are your thoughts on a traditional bridge at which they would shave the healthy teeth on both sides of #9? Also how long does a traditional bridge last?
What about the new scotchbond universal plus? Have you tried it yet? 3M representative in my country told me scotchbond universal plus is only compatible with relyx universal. For relyx ultimate and relyx veneer I would have to first cure the scotchbond unviersal plus then cure the cement (no, thanks!). In alternative I could continue to use the scotchbond universal (the original not the new S.U. plus) along with relyx ultimate or relyx veneer and cement the combination together like I am used to do. This response seems off to me. Seems like they are pushing to only use relyx universal.
Didn't know the gaps in between are genetics problem. Just heard the info from my dentist a few days ago. He recommended me a bridge and will surely take one soon.
Yes, but a maxillary anterior bridge is under more stress than a mandibular because the biting force is outward, away from the teeth. I look at a maxillary Maryland bridge as a temporary fix, vs. a mandibular Maryland bridge as a potential long term fix because of less stress on the mandibular anterior bridge. It's important with either maxillary or mandibular Maryland bridges that the patient not bite anything harder than a hamburger with their front teeth and they wear a night guard while sleeping.

Thanks Dr for the explanation but could you please let me know first of all if Crown / Root ratio on adjacent teeth is 1 to 1 no mobility , we can still go with M-land bridge? And my second question is if there is loss of two of these lower anterior teeth lets say both centrals or central lateral on one side we can still go a head with M-land bridge rather than preparing teeth for more unit bridge?
I do not like to prepare mandibular incisors for full crowns or bridge retainers because they are too small. If most mandibular incisors are prepared for full crowns, there is minimum tooth remaining, often requiring endodontics and becoming very prone to fracture. If a patient is missing both central incisors, I normally prefer to extract all 4 incisors, place implants in the lateral incisor spaces (sometimes 2.5 mm small diameter implants), and replace the 4 teeth with a 4 unit implant supported fixed bridge. Watch the videos in the library of DentistryMasterClasses.com.
I rarely place maxillary Maryland bridges. They only work if the mandibular anterior teeth do not contact the Maryland bridge when the patient bites together. If the mandibular teeth contact the maxillary Maryland bridge, the bridge with be prone to coming loose or breaking. The biting angle is not good for a maxillary Maryland bridge because the pressure from biting is in the facial, or outward, direction, pushing the bridge away from the teeth. A Maryland bridge is acceptable for lower incisor replacement because the pressure from biting does not push the bridge off the teeth. I do not view a Maryland bridge as a long term restoration, although, in the right situation with a patient who is careful what they bite, they can last a long time. It is imperative the patient wear a nightguard and not bite anything harder than a sandwich with their anterior teeth if they have a Maryland bridge. I like predictability. I do not place restorations that have a high potential to be an ongoing problem, like dentures without implants or maxillary Maryland bridges.

Hi Dr Cutbirth - I have a big gap on my bottom teeth which looks like I am missing a tooth, it is 4mm. Too small for an implant I was told. Could a Maryland bridge be an option if I dont want to wear braces (I am 34 and don't want to wear braces and afterwards also a night retainer..)? It would mean I have 5 frontal incisors instead of 4. The gap is between lateral incisor and canine.

Outstanding presentation! Im so inspired to try. I completely (and intentionally) forgot about maryland bridges, but the tooth structure preservation reason specifically for the lower anteriors is on point. I wonder though, if i do a maryland bridge using conventional PFMC (with both wings as metal), will it last? Presuming i will only be preparing the lingual surfaces( no incisal involvement).. Thank you for this video, really.. its really inspiring! 😊👍
Ideally, the material should be bondable since there is no retention from the preparation. I have never placed a porcelain to metal Maryland bridge, so I do not know how stable it would be. I tell the patient a Maryland bridge is not long lived, although I have had some mandibular anterior Maryland bridges last 10-15 years if the patient is careful and does not bite anything harder than a soft sandwich with them. Replacing missing mandibular anterior teeth is always a challenge because of the limited facial/lingual bone width. I have some videos in DentistryMasterClasses.com replacing missing lower anterior teeth with 2.5mm diameter small diameter implants and crowns. If 2 adjacent mandibular incisors are missing, I will sometimes remove all 4 incisors and replace them with a 4 unit implant supported fixed bridge. The abutments may be 2.5mm small diameter implants. These implant supported fixed bridges have worked beautifully. Watch the videos in DentistryMasterClasses.com.

very informative video Dr. Cutbirth. is the bondong of zirconia partially coverage restoration like the one you have done here predictable. in my practice i only use lithium disilicate restorations as bonded restoration. plz share your experience as i am always sceptical of doing marylands in all ceramics bz i m afraid about how long wil they last.
In my opinion, a Maryland bridge is always looked at as a non-permanent restoration. The longevity of the restoration depends greatly on where the MBridge is located and the ability of the patient not to bite anything harder than a tunafish sandwich on the bridge. I rarely place a Maryland bridge anywhere except the mandibular anterior to replace a missing incisor. Treated zirconia has worked well for me in these cases, but lithium disilicate is also good, just not as strong.

Nice job, Dr Cutbirth. What do you think about a Maryland pontic for anterior-lower incisor all made with composite? Do you think that it still is going to work well?
I cannot comment because I have never used composite for a Maryland bridge. It does not sound like it would be very strong. I prefer a zirconia substructure covered with lithium disilicate (e-max).

Thanks for sharing this video. I see you clean the tooth with isopropyl alcohol, how about using zephiran as antiseptic as alternative?
I'm not familiar with zephiran, but many different cleaners would work.

appreciate your reply @@centerforard
Thanks for the great effort I did learn a lot from your videos
What do you write on the lab prescription to describe the pontic design that flat lingual
Is that a saddleback pontic ????
Thanks
No, it's a "sanitary" pontic, shaped like the larger, rounded part of an eggshell at the tissue.

Doctor Maryland bridge for missing lower canines
In your opinion is Emax a wise choice…or pfm?
thanks in advance
I would normally not place a Maryland bridge to replace missing maxillary or mandibular canines. I would place either implants or full coverage bridges. There is normally too much stress on cuspid teeth for Maryland bridges.

Good day , great job ! maybe you can create cerconium crown on toth 3.2 and 4.1 why not ? this is just my opinion.
I try to never place full crowns on lower incisors. Those teeth are too small and will eventually fracture at the gumline due to the circumferential 1.5mm tooth removal from the crown prep.
I'm a dental technician in Dallas Texas, thank you very much doctor for all your great videos they are very informative, great job on this maryland bridge, the shade could've been a little better 😊
As you know, matching a single central incisor is near impossible, especially with a Maryland bridge. I am presenting real dental cases in a real, full time practice, not some "ideal" case I spend hours going back and forth with a lab tech to create a "case for presentation" as many presenters do. For a lower central incisor on a Maryland bridge, I felt the shade match was extremely good. It's easy for dentists/technicians who do not present seminars or publish cases themselves to be critical because they do not realize how difficult the process is.
@@centerforard thank you Dr for taking the time to write back I agree with you on everything you said and for taking the time to educate us on a lot of this subjects one of my favorite videos is the one on fundamentals of occlusion, please keep them coming.

Hi would you recommend maryland bridge for an upper cuspid? Thanks
Normally, no, because there is too much lateral pressure on an upper cuspid. Feel M'land bridges are best to replace mandibular lateral and central incisors. Maryland bridges pretty well replacing upper lateral incisors if the patient is not a significant teeth grinder or bruxer, wears a nightguard while sleeping and doesn't bite hard things with the anterior teeth. I, personally, do not place Maryland bridges to replace any teeth but mandibular central and lateral incisors.
Hello sir , is it necessary to wear night guard after placed lower maryland bridge for single front tooth
I feel almost everyone should wear a nightguard to prevent teeth wear and to protect restorations. Our daughters received night guards when they stopped growing at around age 16, In my opinion, nightguard is like brakes on your car.

Hi Dr. I read that 2 wings will have higher chance of failing due to different tooth movement of two abutments. What do you think of single wing Maryland bridge?
I have had excellent results with Maryland bridges (2 wings) replacing single missing mandibular incisors. I cannot remember any of them becoming detached. I do not place Maryland bridges anywhere else to replace missing teeth. I have replaced some missing maxillary and mandibular lateral incisors in the past with 2 unit fixed bridges extending from the cuspids to the missing laterals with a full crown retainer on the cuspid. I would not suggest a "single wing" Maryland bridge with the wing cemented only to the lingual/palatal surface of a single adjacent tooth. That sounds very unstable. Remember, you want any restoration you place to hold up. You do not want to be decrementing or repairing restorations. Restorative failures cause the patient to loose confidence in you and it is costly for you to have to recement restorations. Be sure the patient has a night guard and knows not to bite hard things with any of their teeth, especially an area with a Maryland bridge or a cantilevered lateral incisor fixed bridge.

Hi Dr. Cutbirth, I have to have a Maryland on my upper central incisor in a few weeks, how much will it affect chewing and things I can eat?
I, personally, do not place Maryland bridges to replace upper anterior teeth or posterior teeth because of the biting force in those areas. If a lower anterior tooth is being replaced, the biting force is "into" the arch alignment, versus an outward or facial direction force with the upper anterior teeth. My personal feeling is there is also too much biting force on posterior teeth for a Maryland bridge. Years ago I placed upper anterior Maryland bridges but have not placed one in that area in 20 years because of the issues I mentioned above. In some cases Maryland bridges would probably work, I just do not personally place them in those areas.
Good job sir .. I am asking if it is possible to do labial veneer to get better esthetic results
Sure. Normally, only the incisal 1/4 of the mandibular anterior teeth are seen when smiling or speaking, so "perfect" aesthetics is not as critical as with the maxillary anterior teeth. As with many things in life, it gets down to finances.
@@centerforard logical answer ...thank you sir ...I am always follow your nice ideas .
Terrific! I hope you are subscribed to DentistryMasterClasses.com for the best videos. An organized library of all the DM videos plus many complete comprehensive cases of all kinds of treatment.
Do you think the other incisor may need endo in the future?
Hard to say. I am sure I cold and percussion tested the teeth prior to restoring them and they were vital. Certainly teeth are similar to trees, the nerve can "die" or become symptomatic years after a traumatic event.
How long do these last?
Depends on how you take care of them, what you eat, etc. It's like asking how long a car or house lasts. It depends on many variables.
Is this procedure good for both missing canine teeth??
No, I do not think Maryland bridges are good for missing canines or posterior teeth. They are best for missing lateral incisors. Maryland bridges are probably not a good restoration in areas that are under a lot of biting pressure.

Hey Doc will a maryland bridge work with tooth #9?
Maryland bridges in the maxillary anterior can be tricky. If the patient has a class 2 occlusion, and the mandibular anterior teeth do not touch the maxillary anterior teeth except in protrusive movement, an anterior maxillary Maryland bridge can work if the patient does not bite anything harder than a hamburger or tuna sandwich with the anterior teeth. The problem with a maxillary anterior Maryland bridge is the biting force angle. The biting force angle on maxillary anterior teeth is "outward," not "inward" into the teeth like the mandibular anterior teeth. The cement luting materiol tends to break loose over time if the patient contacts the maxillary Maryland bridge with the mandibular anterior teeth in CO, or if they just clinch on the bridge. You don't want to place something on the teeth that you will have to be recementing or repairing on a regular basis. It will cost you money and time and the patient will think you did not know what you were doing, even if it is their fault the bridge is breaking loose. In other words, the patient's problem has become your problem. I have placed my share of mandibular and maxillary anterior Maryland bridges, and my personal experience is the mandibular Maryland bridges predictably hold up for a long period of time if the patient is careful and wears a Nightguard. The maxillary Maryland bridges are much more prone to become loose.

@@centerforard In regards, what do you think is the best option to replace missing tooth #9? I have a slight overbite so my teeth dnt touch directly. Dental implant is way too expensive…What are your thoughts on a traditional bridge at which they would shave the healthy teeth on both sides of #9? Also how long does a traditional bridge last?
Watch my video on "Implants vs. Fixed Bridges." It should answer your questions.
What about the new scotchbond universal plus? Have you tried it yet? 3M representative in my country told me scotchbond universal plus is only compatible with relyx universal. For relyx ultimate and relyx veneer I would have to first cure the scotchbond unviersal plus then cure the cement (no, thanks!). In alternative I could continue to use the scotchbond universal (the original not the new S.U. plus) along with relyx ultimate or relyx veneer and cement the combination together like I am used to do.
This response seems off to me. Seems like they are pushing to only use relyx universal.
I believe most adhesives/resin systems are effective if used properly.
Didn't know the gaps in between are genetics problem. Just heard the info from my dentist a few days ago. He recommended me a bridge and will surely take one soon.
Great!
Can we do Maryland bridge on upper with 2 wings to increase bonding
Yes, but a maxillary anterior bridge is under more stress than a mandibular because the biting force is outward, away from the teeth. I look at a maxillary Maryland bridge as a temporary fix, vs. a mandibular Maryland bridge as a potential long term fix because of less stress on the mandibular anterior bridge. It's important with either maxillary or mandibular Maryland bridges that the patient not bite anything harder than a hamburger with their front teeth and they wear a night guard while sleeping.

What do i do to avoid food getting stuck under the bridge (fake teeth)
I trim the stone model in the gingival pontic receptor site so the pontic makes intimate contact and actually blanches the gingival tissue in that gingival pontic receptor site when seated. You do not want any space between the pontic and soft tissue or it will collect food.

Thanks Dr for the explanation but could you please let me know first of all if Crown / Root ratio on adjacent teeth is 1 to 1 no mobility , we can still go with M-land bridge? And my second question is if there is loss of two of these lower anterior teeth lets say both centrals or central lateral on one side we can still go a head with M-land bridge rather than preparing teeth for more unit bridge?
I do not like to prepare mandibular incisors for full crowns or bridge retainers because they are too small. If most mandibular incisors are prepared for full crowns, there is minimum tooth remaining, often requiring endodontics and becoming very prone to fracture. If a patient is missing both central incisors, I normally prefer to extract all 4 incisors, place implants in the lateral incisor spaces (sometimes 2.5 mm small diameter implants), and replace the 4 teeth with a 4 unit implant supported fixed bridge. Watch the videos in the library of DentistryMasterClasses.com.
@@centerforard thanks a lot for a great tip Dr.
Can you show an upper anterior maryland bridge in future ?
I rarely place maxillary Maryland bridges. They only work if the mandibular anterior teeth do not contact the Maryland bridge when the patient bites together. If the mandibular teeth contact the maxillary Maryland bridge, the bridge with be prone to coming loose or breaking. The biting angle is not good for a maxillary Maryland bridge because the pressure from biting is in the facial, or outward, direction, pushing the bridge away from the teeth. A Maryland bridge is acceptable for lower incisor replacement because the pressure from biting does not push the bridge off the teeth. I do not view a Maryland bridge as a long term restoration, although, in the right situation with a patient who is careful what they bite, they can last a long time. It is imperative the patient wear a nightguard and not bite anything harder than a sandwich with their anterior teeth if they have a Maryland bridge. I like predictability. I do not place restorations that have a high potential to be an ongoing problem, like dentures without implants or maxillary Maryland bridges.
Thank you for your kind explanation. Would adding retention/resistance form to the preparations such as grooves/slots improve the success rate?
Not really, because the bridge is bonded to the teeth, not cemented. Surface area is the key.
Thank you for this video . I have a similar case this week and I am excited .

How can I get in touch with you
Above answer.
Hi Dr Cutbirth - I have a big gap on my bottom teeth which looks like I am missing a tooth, it is 4mm. Too small for an implant I was told. Could a Maryland bridge be an option if I dont want to wear braces (I am 34 and don't want to wear braces and afterwards also a night retainer..)? It would mean I have 5 frontal incisors instead of 4. The gap is between lateral incisor and canine.
Sorry, I cannot diagnose your condition and recommend treatment without examining you.
California, central California. Any dentist willing to perform this technique? Way better option than a bridge
Maryland bridges are good in the mandibular anterior region.

Outstanding presentation! Im so inspired to try. I completely (and intentionally) forgot about maryland bridges, but the tooth structure preservation reason specifically for the lower anteriors is on point.
I wonder though, if i do a maryland bridge using conventional PFMC (with both wings as metal), will it last? Presuming i will only be preparing the lingual surfaces( no incisal involvement)..
Thank you for this video, really.. its really inspiring! 😊👍
Ideally, the material should be bondable since there is no retention from the preparation. I have never placed a porcelain to metal Maryland bridge, so I do not know how stable it would be. I tell the patient a Maryland bridge is not long lived, although I have had some mandibular anterior Maryland bridges last 10-15 years if the patient is careful and does not bite anything harder than a soft sandwich with them. Replacing missing mandibular anterior teeth is always a challenge because of the limited facial/lingual bone width. I have some videos in DentistryMasterClasses.com replacing missing lower anterior teeth with 2.5mm diameter small diameter implants and crowns. If 2 adjacent mandibular incisors are missing, I will sometimes remove all 4 incisors and replace them with a 4 unit implant supported fixed bridge. The abutments may be 2.5mm small diameter implants. These implant supported fixed bridges have worked beautifully. Watch the videos in DentistryMasterClasses.com.

Why prep at all. You dont need the space
I like to bond to a fresh surface. The prep is really just roughening the surface when placing a mandibular anterior Maryland bridge.
