The direct fiber-reinforced fixed dental prosthesis (FRFDP) is a minimally invasive approach to replacing missing anterior teeth, offering good survival rates and sound mechanical properties. This report describes the placement and 12-month follow-up results of FRFDPs used to replace missing anterior teeth in 2 patients. In the first case, the extraction of the maxillary right central incisor was related to trauma. In the second case, severe periodontal disease necessitated the extraction of the mandibular left central incisor. Based on the biological and financial considerations of the patients and the need to obtain clinical resolution in a short time, placement of an FRFDP was proposed in each case. Each patient was informed of the benefits and limitations of an FRFDP and accepted the treatment plan. In each case, an FRFDP was placed immediately after the surgical extraction of the incisor, using the extracted tooth as a pontic. The results observed at the 12-month follow-up examinations of the patients suggest that the FRFDP is a viable, esthetic, and functional option to replace missing anterior teeth. |
