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
Proper management of provisional prosthesis is key to success in prosthodontics. Provisional restoration on maxillary anterior missing area frequently come across a incident of falling off especially in patients with long span pontics and oval arch shape. This is because maxillary anterior teeth are more exposed to horizontal force than the posterior teeth and additional anterior cantilever effect will negatively affect to the retention of provisional prosthesis. Beside that maxillary anterior provisional prosthesis should provide proper incisal guidance during the mandibular functional movements. However occlusal contacts on the prosthesis in maximum intercuspal position are located on opposite side of fulcrum line of prosthesis which will cause removing force against the provisional prosthesis. This case report present that provisional implant prevent pre-described harmful effect on maxillary anterior fixed provisional prosthesis and provide comfort and satisfactory result during post-extraction healing period.
