Abstract

Replacing a single or multiple tooth pose various clinical challenges to the clinician during prosthetic rehabilitation. This clinical challenge is more complicated with fixed dental prosthesis when there is an insufficient space for the pontic. Replacing the tooth in these quantifiable situation is best suited by implant supported prosthesis. In the presented case series, we present three such cases where missing teeth were restored with implant supported prosthesis immediately post extraction to satisfy patients aesthetic as well as functional needs.
