Abstract

A technique for restoring missing anterior teeth with associated extensive alveolar bone loss has been presented. This technique combines fixed and removable restorations where in removable prosthesis that restores the alveolar defect gets attached to the fixed prosthesis through precision attachment. The fixed prosthesis contributes to esthetics, function and also elevates patient’s self image. The removable prosthesis provides the much needed soft tissue support and also facilitates oral hygiene maintenance.
