Overview

Cross-sectional study evaluates adherence to evidence-based practices in fixed prosthodontics, revealing knowledge gaps.

Key Points

  • Only 41.2% of dentists knew the correct occlusal reduction for zirconia crowns.
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns were the most commonly used material, especially among rural dentists.
  • Guideline adherence was low at 49.5%, with prosthodontists complying more than general dentists.
  • Barriers to optimal care included cost, lack of training, and patient affordability.
