For patients who require removal of anterior teeth and their replacement various treatment modalities are available. With advancement in technology and availability of glass/polyethylene fibres, use of natural tooth as pontic with fibre reinforced composite restorations offers the promising results. The present case report describes management of periodontally compromised mandibular anterior tooth using natural tooth pontic with fibre reinforcement. A 1-year follow-up showed that the bridge was intact with good esthetics and no problem was reported.

Denture treatment has the objective to enhance mastication and aesthetics function of patients. Recently, fixedpartial dentures, crowns or bridges are popular restoration in population. The materials usually used for therestoration are acrylic, porcelain, composite, and metal. Composite is used due to patient’s unability to comeseveral times. This case report will discuss the technique of making three unit bridge using composite materials.This composite restoration is used because the colors can be matched with natural tooth colors and completed inone visit

The replacement of a single maxillary central incisor is a unique prosthodontic challenge from esthetic as well as a functional point of view. Loss of anterior teeth with existing natural diastema presents problems such as increased mesiodistal space available for pontic which makes it very difficult to give conventional fixed prosthesis with rigid connector and wider pontics can be very unesthetic to look in the esthetic zone. This clinical situation is a major challenge for a prosthodontist; leaves him in a dilemma whether to close the space or to maintain it in a final fixed prosthesis simulating the natural tooth appearance. If implant-supported prosthesis is not possible fixed partial denture along with loop connector is the best solution to maintain the existing diastema and esthetics. This article presents a case report where fixed partial denture along with loop connector was used to achieve esthetic rehabilitation in maxillary anterior region maintaining natural existing diastema.

ABSTRACT Tooth loss, especially in anterior region, precipitates psychological distress to the affected individual. Providing an immediate definitive restoration is sometimes not possible and, in some specific clinical situations, a delay of few months may even be desirable before providing a final restoration. Natural tooth pontic is a simple and time-saving alternative for interim rehabilitation in anterior tooth region which restores the esthetics to near normal in a single appointment. This article discusses two cases where it was not possible to place an implant or any other definitive prosthetic restoration in immediate future. Excellent esthetic results were obtained with natural tooth pontic used as an interim restoration in these cases.

ABSTRACTRibbond is a bondable, biocompatible, esthetic, translucent and easy-to-use reinforced ribbon. By virtue of its wide spectrum of intended properties, it enjoys various applications in clinical dentistry. This case report demonstrates usage of Ribbond as a space maintainer, a fixed partial denture with a natural tooth pontic, an endodontic post and cores and a splint material in children. Ribbond can be used as an alternative to conventional treatment in pediatric dentistry. (Eur J Dent 2009;3:329-334)

Background: Trauma to the anterior teeth is common in young children and in adolescents. Uncomplicated crown fracture to the permanent teeth has an intense effect not only on the patient’s esthetics, but also on speech and function. Aim: Performing an economical, a minimally invasive, time-saving, long lasting, functional and natural alike direct composite resin restorations in a single visit. Conclusion: As restoring a fractured tooth structure is a complex procedure, this technique can prove to be a simple, effective and appropriate technique that will fulfill all the requirements of dental practioner without requiring special skills in providing the patients with direct composite restorations. Clinical Significance: This technique is economical which requires less chair side time compared to indirect restorations.
