Single tooth replacement--expanded treatment options

R W Chan et al. Aust Dent J. 1994 Jun.

Abstract

The aim of any prosthesis is to restore function and aesthetics by replacing the missing tooth with minimal risks to adjacent tissues. The options presently available to the patient for the replacement of a missing single tooth include the removable partial denture, partial and full coverage bridgework, resin-bonded bridgework and the single-tooth implant prosthesis. The relative merits and guidelines for successful application of these treatment modalities are presented.
