Esthetic Rehabilitation of Congenitally Missing Laterals and Decidious Canines with Direct Restorative Approach: A Case Report

Journal Title: Medical Science and Discovery - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Congenitally missing lateral incisors and persistent deciduous canines severely compromise esthetic appearance due to their strategic positions in the smile. Several treatment procedures have been proposed to rehabilitate this esthetic deficiency. With the recent improvements in adhesive dentistry and dental resin composites, the material is successfully used to restore anterior teeth in which the esthetic is primarily important. This case report illustrates the dental esthetic rehabilitation of an adolescent patient with diastemata resulted from hypodontia of upper lateral incisors and persistent upper decidious canines via direct composite veneers. In 12-month clinical follow-up, all restorations were preserving their integrity and no notable discoloration was observed.This article presents that direct composite veneers are the most conservative, low cost, achievable in one-session treatment option for the rehabilitation of dental esthetics disfigured by both diastemata depending on hypodontia of lateral incisors and persistent decidious canines.Key Words: Composite dental resin; dental esthetics
