Abstract

The prosthetic restoration of a unimaxillary edentulous arch is a complex treatment and a challenging clinical situation. This type of edentulous is more frequently encountered in the maxilla than in the mandible. It is opposed to a natural dentition, that can be the origin of aesthetic, occlusal and biological problems affecting the integration of the future prosthesis. Achieving harmonious occlusal plane and obtaining occlusal balance and aesthetic satisfaction of the patient are the principal objectives of the treatment. The practitioner must perform a reasoned analysis of the clinical case, detect the existing difficulties, and establish a strategy of adapted treatment. This article aim’s is to present, through two clinical cases, the particularities of this type of edentulism, and the therapeutic approach for the management of the aesthetic and functional difficulties.
