Prosthetic Treatment of Severely Resorbed Anterior Ridge: Case Report

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

Restoration of anterior ridge defects with missing teeth both in height and width is critical for a dentist to restore. Restoration of lost teeth along with the bony defect restricts many modes of conventional treatments available. For obtaining functionally and aesthetically acceptable results a combination of fixed and removable prosthesis has turned out to be outstanding without the need for rehabilitation of the defect with soft tissue and hard tissue defects. This article represents a case report of maxillary anterior ridge defect of Siebert’s class III and management with Andrew’s Bridge.
