Can monolithic zirconia frameworks in implant-supported cross-arch prostheses deliver reliable long-term outcomes?
IFCDPs with monolithic zirconia-based frameworks exhibited favourable clinical outcomes over a 5-13-year period. However, mandibular prostheses were more prone to framework fractures and peri-implantitis, highlighting the need to consider mandibular flexure in prosthetic design to enhance long-term success and durability.
