Abstract:
This short communication reports a clinical case of a 11-year-old girl, who underwent an avulsion of the lower left lateral incisor and who sought delayed treatment. The treatment was a combined technique with polyethylene fibers and composite resins to create a fixed partial denture, which is a low-cost solution and presents a good esthetic-functional result. The technique is described and the success of its use in appropriately recommended cases is confirmed.
