Replacement of maxillary lateral incisors with digitally manufactured single tooth retained all-ceramic pontics: a clinical report

Resumo

Several treatment options for replacement of anterior missing teeth exist, varying from no-prep (no preparation)
adhesive restorations to implants. Patients’ biological, psychological, economic conditions or age have an effect on
the treatment choice. It is important to perform the most conservative and beneficial treatment option considering
the patient based factors. The aim of this case report was to demonstrate a single session, minimally invasive,
cantilevered 2-unit all-ceramic restorations replacing anterior missing teeth combined with the advantages of
CAD/CAM technology and materials.
