Abstract

Developments in adhesive dentistry have provided the dental profession with new restorative materials and
technology to restore esthetics and function to the missing anterior dentition. Interdisciplinary treatment planning,
knowledge of available restorative materials, sequencing treatment modalities, and adequate communication
between the disciplines involved are a key to a successful treatment outcome when pursuing restorative
rehabilitation.
This clinical report describes the challenges faced in the prosthetic rehabilitation of a partially edentulous patient
to achieve a successful restoration in terms of biomechanics and function.
