Sudden tooth loss can be a traumatic experience that affects a child psychologically and hampers social skills in today's world, in which appearances seem to matter from a young age. The child becomes afraid to smile freely. Besides appearances, missing anterior teeth can hamper clarity in speech. Many approaches have been described in the past, such as the use of a removable partial denture, functional Nance appliance, Groper's appliance, and resin-reinforced fiber composite/acrylic pontic. We report the case of a child who lost a deciduous tooth as a result of trauma. The restoration was performed using fiber-reinforced resin and a natural avulsed tooth as pontic, which restored esthetics and function.
