Revolutionizing Oral Rehabilitation With Modified Andrew's Bridge for Alveolar Bone Defect: A Case Report

Within the realm of prosthodontics, the challenge of replacing multiple missing teeth is a complex one, compounded by patient's preference for fixed prostheses over removable ones owing to their superior aesthetic and functional attributes. However, the feasibility of fixed prostheses diminishes in scenarios marked by compromised remaining dentition and defects in edentulous regions. To navigate these challenges effectively, the Andrew's bridge emerges as a compelling solution, integrating both fixed and removable components. This approach, particularly adept at addressing extensive alveolar bone defects, offers a synthesis of advantages including enhanced phonetics, hygiene, aesthetics and function. This article details a case report that outlines the digital fabrication process of an Andrews Bridge used to treat a maxillary anterior ridge defect.
