Abstract :
Congenitally missing teeth and/or hypodontia is a prevalent dental anomaly. There are different treatment options available for
these conditions such as space maintenance, restoring the space by resin-bonded-fixed-partial-dentures (RBFPDs), and dental
implants. This study addresses the comprehensive treatments for congenitally missing tooth and diastema using interdisciplinary
approaches. One patient was treated with small-diameter-implants and the other one was treated using an intraoral scanner to
make digital impression and fabricating RBFPDs with CAD/CAM system. Both patients were completely satisfied.
