ABSTRACT

Conventional procedures for the preparation of abutment teeth often involve major removal of tooth structure. If coverage is necessary for cosmetic purposes because of caries or pre-existing restorations, this removal of structure is acceptable. However, when the abutment teeth are sound, conventional full-coverage procedures seem quite radical. This article describes a technique for fabrication and attachment of metal-ceramic resin-bonded fixed partial denture as a conservative solution for the replacement of an incisor. It is a minimally invasive technique that restores function as well as aesthetics.
