| Abstract Aim: The idea of tooth tissue supported overdentures is considered as an alternative to extraction of remaining teeth. The difference in clinical outcome between amalgam and nano-hybrid resin composite as filling material for the overdenture abutments, yet has not been emphasized, thus further research is required to confirm the ideal filling material in prepared endodontically treated abutment teeth. Methods: 28 patients with bilateral remaining canines or premolars in the maxillary or mandibular arch were enrolled in the study. Dome shaped preparations of the abutments were performed. The amalgam and composite restorations were randomly assigned to either the right or left remaining abutments, then conventional steps of overdenture fabrication and insertion were accomplished. Patients were followed up for 3 years. Results: A non -statistically significant difference was revealed in the wear depth of the two restoration P value <0.001. However, A statistically significant higher survival survival rate of nano-hybrid composite was revealed. P value= 0.387 Conclusion: Nano-hybrid resin composite can be used successfully as filling material for overdenture abutments. | ||
