This study presents a simple technique for immediate tooth replacement using the patient's own extracted tooth as a temporary pontic. The method offers a practical, esthetic, and time-efficient solution for anterior tooth loss.

Area of Science:

Dentistry
Restorative Dentistry
Dental Materials

Background:

Immediate tooth replacement is crucial for maintaining esthetics and function after anterior tooth extraction.
Traditional methods can be time-consuming, costly, or invasive.

Observation:

A novel clinical technique utilizes the extracted tooth's crown as a pontic.
Acid-etch bonded resin is employed to attach the pontic to adjacent teeth.

Findings:

This method provides an immediate, fixed, and esthetic tooth replacement.
The technique requires minimal dental materials and clinical chair time.

Implications:

This approach offers a cost-effective and minimally invasive solution for immediate esthetic rehabilitation.
