The Arizona bridge: an alternate arrangement to the Maryland-style bridge.
This case provided a significant difference in the patient's appearance and eliminated pain and infection. It was also greatly satisfying because all the treatment objectives were accomplished. Because of the restorations' design, occlusal function on the veneers and pontics was kept to a minimum, except for tooth No. 12 where there was significant tooth support for resistance and retention. With proper daily hygiene and routine recare, this new style of bridge using the latest adhesive techniques can be expected to last many years.
