Anterior maxillary resin-bonded fixed partial denture to preserve occlusal surface area for anterior guidance. A clinical report.
One of the problems with anterior maxillary resin-bonded fixed partial dentures is anterior-guided occlusion. An anterior maxillary resin-bonded fixed partial denture was fabricated. The reduction of the lingual surface of the abutment was restricted to the nonocclusal surface area for anterior guidance. The patient's original mandibular movement did not change after the denture was seated. The denture has been functioning satisfactorily without any problems for more than 72 months. This article emphasizes the concept of fabricating an anterior maxillary resin-bonded fixed partial denture without reduction of the occlusal surface area for anterior guidance.
