Abstract

A 19-year-old female patient came with the chief complaint that the upper anterior teeth looked small and with many spaces. The patient claimed that the tooth had never been replaced since birth. The patient wanted to improve the aesthetics of the tooth. Treatment, in this case, was made using a fixed prosthetic to aesthetically rehabilitate through prosthodontic treatment in the anterior teeth agenesis followed by attrition. It can be concluded that fixed prosthodontic treatment using a splint bridge is one treatment option that can be used in multiple anterior teeth agenesis followed by tooth wear. An appropriate material selection increases the aesthetics and functional aspects of the final treatment.
