Resin-Bonded Fixed Partial Dentures (RBFPD) was introduced to dentistry around 40 years ago. The typical design of resin-bonded fixed partial denture is characterized by conservation of tooth structure of abutment compared to fixed treatment. This article presents a case report of a patient who reported with missing maxillary central incisor. Multiple treatment options are available for replacement of missing tooth. Use of conventional fixed partial denture in such a situation is criticized because modern dental practice revolves around the principle of preservation of tooth structure. So in such cases resin bonded fixed partial denture is best treatment option.
