    Abstract

    Demanding esthetic requirements of patients demands highly skilled and multidisciplinary approach in dentistry. Mimicking tooth contour and giving it a life like appearance while replacing anterior missing teeth is a challenge to a prosthodontist. Choosing appropriate design of the pontic plays a crucial role in deciding the successful outcome of the treatment. Among the various types of pontic recommended for anterior tooth replacement, modified ovate pontic addresses the shortcomings of others and overcomes them by giving more esthetically pleasing appearance.It fulfills the esthetic as well as functional requirement of a fixed prosthesis along with enhanced hygiene maintenance for the longevity of it.
