Abstract: (203 Views)
Replacement of a single missing tooth in the esthetic zone is a challenging clinical situation. As treatment expectations of dental patients continue to escalate, restorative dentists must consider several factors to ensure a management with optimum results. Preservation of the remaining teeth structure plays an important role in determining a suitable option for replacement of a single missing tooth. The treatment options should not only be confined to implants or lingually/palatally resin bonded bridges but also veneer-retained fixed dental prosthesis in selected cases could prove to be beneficial for the patient. This clinical report presents three cases treated with this approach and followed-up for up to five years. In addition, a review of the literature was conducted to identify the potential complications of this treatment modality.
