ABSTRACT
Prosthetic dentistry constantly evolving as a result of innovative treatment solution based on new material, treatment technique,and technologies. The advent of fiber reinforced has further increased the potential uses of composite material within prostheticdentistry. As we know that, missing anterior teeth are serious concern in the social life of a patient. To restore the missing anteriorteeth, we are having several treatment options such as conventional fixed partial denture and implant-supported restoration allthese are may the treatment of choice, but fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) resin offers a conservative, fast, and cost-effectivealternative for single or multiple teeth replacement. In this paper, we are presenting how to use FRC technology to restoreanterior edentulous area in terms of esthetic values and functionality.
ABSTRACT
Often the loss of the continuity of the mandible hampers the balance and the symmetry of mandibular function, leading to altered mandibular movements and deviation of the residual fragment towards the surgical side. Successful intercuspal position with the antagonist in the remainder arch was accomplished through the use of functionally moulded palatal guidance appliance in a patient who underwent hemisection and postsurgical radiation of the mandible, subsequent to treatment for a squamous cell carcinoma of right side of the ramus of mandible. This article describes the fabrication and function of a maxillary palatally positioned, functionally moulded guide flange to assist post resection physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
