[Overlay dentures].

Overlay dentures which are accepted as superposition appliances have been presented by three cases in this article. These kind of dentures are dedicated as prosthodontic restorations which are applied to extend maxillary arch horizontally in the cases of maxillary collapse. These restorations also increase the vertical dimension which has been lost and so help to improve the facial contour as well as esthetics of the individual-these dentures classified as removable partial or complete overlay dentures are generally applied in the cases of bilateral or unilateral maxillary collapse which have been caused by trauma or tumor resection.

[The use of a modified adhesive bridge in a diastema situation (case report)].

Replacement of maxillary anterior teeth in patients with natural diastema present problems that are further complicated if the patient wishes to preserve the spacing. This report describes a means of replacing a missing anterior tooth, while maintaining a midline diastema. The treatment that we utilized was insertion of a modified adhesive bridge. And also, maxillary lateral teeth restored with laminate veneers. In the adhesive fixed bridge, the pontic and the retainer were connected by a loop. Treatment with a modified adhesive bridge is a reversible, simple, and conservative technique.
