Single missing tooth restorative dilemmas and solutions

Learning Content

The single missing tooth is one of the most common clinical manifestations encountered by dentists.  The last decades have seen many important developments in the field of tooth replacement and oral rehabilitation strategies which can lead to confusion and errors in choices, compounded by aggressive commercial marketing with limited data on long-term success and complications.

Aims

The aim of this lecture will be to try and filter the ‘noise’ and present an evidence-based approach to treatment planning, decisions and clinical practice solutions regarding the single missing tooth.

Learning Outcomes

  • Understand the management strategies and treatment planning for replacement of single missing teeth - Discuss long-term complications of various restorative solutions - Understand the concept of dentoalveolar growth and time in treatment planning.
