Abstract

Replacement of maxillary anterior teeth in patients with natural diastema present problems that are further complicated if the patient wishes to preserve the spacing. A dental arch with diastema and missing lateral incisors represents a challenge because of discrepancies in tooth size. If an implant-supported prosthesis is not possible or not selected as a treatment option, loop connector fixed partial denture may be a treatment option to eliminate the esthetic problems of conventional fixed partial dentures. This clinical report describes a procedure to replace missing central and lateral incisor with loop connectorfixed prosthesis while maintaining diastema.
