Missing teeth in the anterior aesthetic region represent an urgent need for dental intervention and often require an early treatment strategy that restores both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the dentition.
Cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) are considered a minimally invasive treatment approach to the replacement of single missing anterior teeth and provide excellent clinical outcomes, high survival rates and great patient satisfaction.
The Maryland bonded bridge traditionally featured metal wings and porcelain pontics. Today, zirconia is the material of choice due to the better esthetic result.
This lecture is intended to provide additional knowledge and information on the “Maryland” bridge, taking in consideration:
- case selection
- material choice
- preparation design and bridge design
