Restoring anterior tooth aesthetics with a Non- Rigid connector - A modified approach (Case Report)
2013
Aesthetic anterior tooth restoration is one of the greatest challenges for dentists in clinical practice.
Patients expect contemporary dentistry to provide restorations that reproduce natural beauty while ensuring
stability and functionality. The Fixed dental prosthesis fabrication requires equal consideration to be given to
the retainer, pontic and connector design.
The excessive flexing of the long-span fixed dental prosthesis, which varies with the cube of the length
of span, can lead to material failure of prosthesis or to an unfavorable response. The size, shape, and position
of the connector leads to the success of prostheses, as it prevent the distortion and fracture of the prosthesis.
The conventional use of a non rigid connector aids in compensating for the difference in the resistance and
retention form between the abutments. This paper describes a modified technique of restoring anterior
aesthetics with non rigid connector.
