Tooth Replacement Using Natural Tooth Pontic with Fibre Reinforced Composite: A Conservative Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
With advances in material science and technology multitude of treatment options are available for traumatically missing anterior tooth. It can be implants, porcelain to metal bridges, Maryland bridges or orthodontic treatment. Development of fibre-reinforced composites (FRCs) has opened a new perspective in such cases. The fibre-reinforced composites have better flexural strength and fracture resistance. FRC bridges even allow replacing natural tooth pontic. This gives the advantage of perfect colour, size and shape of the pontic and additionally psychological satisfaction to the patient. FRC bridges are easy, minimally invasive and reversible procedure, which can be used as single visit procedures. It also lets other options viable for future, if need be. This paper presents a case of traumatic avulsion of mandibular incisor, which was replaced with natural tooth pontic using fibre-reinforced composite. FRC with natural tooth pontic has the advantage of minimally invasive, immediate, single visit, economical and aesthetically appealing method.
