  • Title: Predictable maxillary central incisor reconstruction: surgical and prosthetic case report.
    Author: O'Brien DA, Verville JD, Hogan BP.
    Journal: Gen Dent; 2001; 49(1):52-6. PubMed ID: 12004677.
    Abstract:
    Replacing a maxillary incisor is a challenge from both a functional and esthetic standpoint. Techniques that strive to return the site to be reconstructed to its optimal state, thereby mimicking the natural dentition, must be employed. This case report serves to outline the steps necessary to reconstruct a commonly encountered maxillary prosthetic challenge. With a combination of surgical and prosthetic steps, an optimal prosthetic result can be achieved. This cooperation between general dentist, surgeon, and laboratory technician will serve to provide predictable and long-lasting return to a near-normal anatomic state, thereby offering our patients the highest level of care for prosthetic replacement.
