Frontal fixed prosthetic restoration in edentulous space modification
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study case presents a 53 years old patient with severe aesthetic dysfunctions due to an ectopic maxillary canine associated with a frontal edentulous space. Orthodontic treatment proposition was refused by the patient. After canine extraction, metalo-ceramic fixed partial prosthesis successfully restored the aesthetic damage in the conditions of a non-gingival smile. Adapted abutment teeth preparations were made in order to provide necessary space for aesthetic alignment of artificial teeth in the pontic.

متن کاملConversion of a complete denture to a provisional implant-supported, screw-retained fixed prosthesis for immediate loading of a completely edentulous arch.
This article describes the fabrication of a provisional implant-supported, screw-retained restoration for immediate loading of a completely edentulous arch.

This article presents a novel prosthodontic approach to restore de maxillary edentulous arch. The treatment proposal consists on a full-arch implat-supported restoration with a segmented design, where the different fixed partial dentures will biomechanicaly behave as a splinted prosthesis, when connected by means of spark erosion tecnology. This design benefits from the advantages of both, scre...
