title: Severe attachment loss at the maxillary incisors: part 2.
abstract: In this two-part treatment planning series, the case of a 63-year-old woman with severe attachment loss at the maxillary incisors is presented. In Part 1, pretreatment strategies, occlusal and periodontal status, and the advantages and disadvantages of six treatment options using both conventional and implant therapy were presented. In this follow-up article, the treatment selected for the case is revealed, and the rationale--including indications and contraindications for the different treatment options--is discussed. The treatment sequence is then outlined, and the final outcome is presented.
