ABSTRACT
Maryland bridge are a minimally invasive treatment alternative for the replacement of missing teeth when conservation of the abutment tooth structure is required. However, the reduced retention of Maryland Bridge, depending on their geometry and design, is still a clinical concern in prosthetic dentistry. To provide a long-lasting prosthesis, the practitioner must plan and fabricate a resin-retained restoration with the careful attention and effort used for conventional restorations. This case report demonstrates the management of an edentulous space in lower anterior region with Maryland Bridge with satisfactory result.
