Brief summary
a 24 Patients above 12 years old with missing upper incisor were divided into two groups, group 1: 12 patient will be treated by resin bonded bridge (RBB) with no preparation protocol, group 2: 12 patient will be treated by resin bonded bridge (RBB) with minimal preparation protocol. (RBB) retention/survival, patient's speech as well as thermal sensitivity and patient's satisfaction will be evaluated for 12 month at 3,6,9 and 12 month.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| resin bonded bridge retention/survival | 12 month | Presence of the prosthesis in patient's mouth (Yes/No) by clinical visual examination. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patient's satisfaction | 12 month | Patient satisfaction outcome is including the following: comfort and stability, esthetics, ease of cleaning, ability to speak, self-esteem, and functionality. the outcome will be evaluated by a visual analogue scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 10 is the maximum (better outcome) and 0 is the minimum (worse outcome). |
