Abstract

The absence of upper lateral incisors is a common developmental anomaly and often results in a serious disorderesthetic problem due to their position in the dental arch.

The management of missing teeth in the anterior esthetic regionrequires assessment of age, location, space limitations, alveolar ridge deficiencies, uneven gingival margins, occlusion and periodontal factors. uneven gingival margins, occlusion and periodontal factors often require an interdisciplinary approach.

Over the last several decades, dentistry has focused various treatment modalities for replacement of missing teeth. There are various planning options orthodontic planning. For example, closing or opening spaces for future prostheses. And for these patients, dental prostheses such as removable dentures, bridges and implants are indicated. Minimally invasive treatment is desirable if adjacent teeth are intact. Such as the cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses.

The aim of this case report is to provide a conservative method for the management of bilateral missing lateral incisor with all-ceramic cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses, based on a clinical case.
