Dentists often question the use of resin-bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs) for reliable restoration tooth-bound edentulous spaces. Initial attempts at bonding on teeth resulted in early failure due to debonding. In 1980s and 1990s, improvements preparation methods, metal alloys techniques made RBFPD a more predictable option. This article provides case report restoring missing maxillary lateral incisor with modified Maryland advantages being provide stronger bond as well kinder...
