The use of conventional FPD may result in too wide anterior teeth leading to poor esthetics. Hence modified FPD with loop connectors provide natural appearance of the restoration and also preserve the remaining tooth structure of abutment teeth. This clinical report deals with the treatment using modified FPD with loop connectors to retain the diastemas while replacing the missing teeth in the maxillary aesthetic zone. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ijdsr/2/4/1/ijdsr-2-4-1.pdf loop diastema connector spacing fixed partial denture aesthetic
