RESUMO

A technique used to repair the abutment tooth of a fixed partial metal-ceramic prosthesis is described. This prosthesis extended from the maxillary central incisor to the left canine. The whole porcelain facial aspect of the central incisor had been fractured. Following a reduction of the metallic structure, a single porcelain crown was bonded to that area. The repair was quick, less expensive and less difficult than removal of the prosthesis and fabrication of a replacement, and provided excellent esthetic and functional results.
