title: [Prosthetic possibilities in the treatment of missing anterior teeth in adolescents].
abstract: Prior to the judgement on the best solution in the treatment of missing teeth in adolescents, an inventory of all problems has to be made. On the basis of this inventory the dentist can search for solutions by means of an analysis of castings and a wax-up. The combination of these solutions is indicative for the therapy which has to follow. In case tooth material has to be added, a prosthetic solution will be necessary. The condition of the teeth adjacent to the open space is the major factor in the considerations on which prosthetic solution is best. To be able to treat in a predictable way, a wax-up is necessary.
