Use of cantilever to replace maxillary premolars?
Last Updated: May 11, 2015
I have a patient who is missing both maxillary premolars on the same side. I installed an implant in the site for the maxillary second premolar. I am planning on using that implant for a single crown with a mesial cantilevered pontic to replace the maxillary first premolar. Do you think this is a viable option? What recommendations do you have?
