Abstract:
Loss of anterior tooth impairs patients physically and emotionally as well as presents a challenge for dentists. This article presented a method of replacing one anterior tooth that was extracted because of periodontitis. The proposed method involves the use of the natural crown as pontic with fiber-reinforced composite resin-bonded fixed partial denture.
