Patient: The patient was a 66-year-old woman with the chief complaint of poor esthetics of the upper teeth, which she wanted to be replaced. The patient was diagnosed as having an esthetic disorder due to an inadequate fixed partial denture on the maxillary anterior teeth and a functional disorder due to missing molars. Occlusal reconstruction with hybrid resin facing prostheses and removable partial dentures was performed.
Discussion: The vertical mandibular position was established at the crown and bridge prostheses, and the final prostheses were mainly tooth-supported. The design of the retainers of the removable partial dentures was also taken into consideration to ensure good esthetics.
Conclusion: Occlusal reconstruction and good esthetics were obtained with hybrid resin facing prostheses and removable partial dentures.
