Anterior spacing is a common esthetic problem of patient during dental consultation. The most common etiology include tooth size and arch length discrepancy. Maxillary lateral incisors vary in form more than any other tooth in the mouth except the third molars. Microdontia is a condition where the teeth are smaller than the normal size. Microdontia of maxillary lateral incisor is called as “peg lateral”, that exhibit converging mesial and distal surfaces of crown forming a cone like shape. A carefully documented diagnosis and treatment plan are essential if the clinician is to apply the most effective approach to address the patient’s needs. A patient sometimes requires a multidisciplinary approach to correct the esthetics and to improve the occlusion. This case report describes the management of an adult female patient with a proclined upper anterior teeth, upper anterior spacing, deep bite and peg shaped upper right lateral incisor tooth through orthodontic and restorative treatment approach.

Dental agenesis of the maxillary lateral incisor is a frequently seen anomaly in children and teenagers nowadays. It can alter the esthetics as well as the functions in the frontal area of the maxilla and therefore, early detection and therapy would be beneficial. The treatment often implies an interdisciplinary approach between orthodontics and implantology. One of the particularities of this kind of treatment is given by the distal angulation of central incisor’s root, which invades the space required by the dental implant. Any treatment plan should begin with a thorough radiographical analysis of the space and morphological particularities of the central incisors.

The aesthetic treatment for anterior teeth requires a series of clinical and technical evaluations to obtain a predictable result, following a well-defined operating sequence. Today, the clinical–technical team can use different digital tools in the different steps of the workflow. A preventive assessment, the knowledge of limits, and the possibilities of surgical and prosthetic procedures allow to use these devices. Sharing goals of the treatment with the patient according to their expectations and needs is the key point of the treatment plan. Setting a defined treatment plan avoids invasive procedures. In this clinical case report, a 27-year-old patient affected by Class II div 2 malocclusion with deep bite was treated with a full digital workflow. Previewing the aesthetics was through dedicated software, which shows operators and patients the objectives of the therapy and guides the dental technician in the first phase of the work. The use of digital flows in the prosthetic phases reduces the working time. In this case, it shows the impact of a digital workflow on peri-prosthetic therapy for the aesthetic rehabilitation of the upper central incisors in a young adult.

Maxillary lateral incisor agenesis is the most prevalent developmental dental anomaly. The management of missing lateral incisor was either closure using canine as substitution or creation of space orthodontically for prosthetic replacement. A careful diagnosis and treatment plan are deemed essential to address the patient’s needs as the spacing is present in the esthetic region. Such problem is very challenging for orthodontists, prosthodontists, and general practitioners. This case report describes the orthodontic management of a 22-year-old adult female patient with missing upper left lateral incisor tooth and upper anterior spacing by closing the space with canine lateralization and reshaping to simulate it with the lateral incisor. However, some modifications in the treatment mechanics are crucial to achieve the optimal esthetic and to improve the occlusion. Space closure with canine lateralization option seems less invasive, treatment can be completed relatively in a short period of time, and its adaptation with the facial changes throughout life without having artificial prosthesis provided other factors favoring for this option.

Keberadaan kista dapat menghambat perawatan ortodontik konvensional yang diberikan pada pasien. Tujuan artikel ini adalah menyajikan laporan kasus perawatan ortodontik alternatif seorang pasien perempuan berusia 17 tahun dengan kondisi gigi atas berjejal berat dan kista jinak di antara gigi insisivus lateral dan kaninus kiri atas. Setelah menetapkan diagnosis ortodontik, perawatan pertama yang dilakukan adalah pengangkatan kista. Kista dikirim untuk biopsi dan didiagnosis sebagai kista jinak. Orang tua dan pasien memutuskan untuk mencabut gigi insisivus lateral atas setelah mengetahui bahwa gigi insisivus lateral kiri atas nekrosis. Setelah gigi dicabut, bracket ortodontik dipasang di gigi bawah pasien. Tiga bulan kemudian, bracket ortodontik dipasang di gigi atas pasien. Kondisi gigi atas yang berjejal terkoreksi dan kaninus atas menggantikan posisi insisivus lateral. Saat ini, perawatan aktif masih dilanjutkan dan terpasang bracket ortodontik dengan elastik kelas III pada pasien. Kesimpulan artikel ini adalah pendekatan perawatan ortodontik inkonvensional dapat menjadi pertimbangan ketika ditemukan hambatan seperti adanya kista. Pasien dan orang tua harus diberi informasi mengenai konsekuensi perawatan sebelum perawatan dimulai.Unconventional Orthodontic Treatment for Upper Teeth Crowding with Benign Cyst. The presence of a cyst can provide an obstacle to the conventional orthodontic treatment given to the patients. The purpose of this article is to describe a case report of a seventeen year-old girl with a severe crowding of maxilla and presence of benign cyst between lateral incisor teeth and upper left canine treated with an alternative orthodontic treatment plan. After orthodontic diagnosis, the first treatment to be conducted was the removal of the cyst. The cyst was sent for biopsy and diagnosed as non-malignant cyst. The patient and her parents decided to extract upper laterals incisor tooth after knowing that the upper left lateral incisor tooth was necrotic. After the extractions, orthodontic brackets were bonded on the mandible. Then three months later the maxilla was bonded. The upper crowding of teeth condition was resolved very promptly and the upper canines were used to replace the laterals incisor position. Currently, active treatment is still in progress, and the patient has full upper and lower orthodontic brackets with class III elastics. After the treatment so far, it can be concluded that unconventional orthodontic treatment is worth considering when an obstacle such as a cyst is present. Patients and parents must be informed about the consequences of the treatment before active treatment is started.

ABSTRACT A rare case of Geminated maxillary lateral incisor with Talon's cusp is reported. In order to relieve the crowding, align the anteriors and to facilitate the eruption of canine it was planned to extract the geminated tooth. The canine after complete eruption was recontoured to the shape of lateral incisor followed by the alignment of anterior teeth.

Abstract Case report: young adult woman with esthetic complaints regarding her smile and frontal teeth aspect. At first glance, the problem seemed to be only the shape of the lateral upper incisors and a small diastema between the central incisors. The diagnosis shared between the orthodontist and the prosthetist led us to consider some other important aspects, such as the deep bite, the teeth inclination and the lips support. All these findings led us to consider that the right way to improve the esthetics of the patient’s smile was to plan an orthodontic treatment. This would serve not only for the distribution of the spaces, but mostly it would improve all other problems, before the restoration of the upper lateral teeth with two ceramic veneers. Results: the treatment plan achieved the right distribution of spaces for upper lateral incisors, significant correction of the incisors inclination with important reduction of overbite and better lip support, upper laterals restorations with ceramic feldspathic veneers, obtaining a good integration with natural teeth satisfying patient complaint. Conclusion: in cases which involve interdisciplinary approach, the fundamental step comes from the beginning, when only an initial diagnosis shared among the team of specialists can define the patient problems from different points of view. In this way, we can better understand the competency fields and plan the right treatment and time sequence.

ABSTRACT Immediate esthetic rehabilitation is a common practice in contemporary restorative dentistry. Sometimes without a precise diagnosis and clinical planning, two or three clinical sessions have been sufficient to start and end an extensive all-ceramic oral rehabilitation. It is essential, however, for these treatments to be based on the biological, mechanical, and occlusal principles that have been established for decades, and not only on aesthetic considerations. In this case report, a 26 year-old bruxist patient with functional and aesthetic needs, was rehabilitated with ceramic restorations in the six maxillary anterior teeth, through an interdisciplinary approach. The diagnostic wax-up was essential to predict the outcome; guide the periodontal surgery; serve as a reference for dental preparations, and restore the dynamics of jaw movements. After the adhesive cementation, a protective occlusal splint for use during sleep was introduced. The authors concluded that careful diagnosis and planning was critical to outcome of this case, and that the quality and longevity of restorative treatment depended on the respect for biomechanical, occlusal, and aesthetic concepts.

Keeping in mind the final result is the basis of any type of treatment, especially those in which the morphology, size and proportion of the anterior teeth will be changed. This is where a good treatment plan based on a diagnostic wax-up tested with a mock-up and approved by the patient becomes crucial. This case report aims to exemplify how to transfer the diagnostic information to the patient’s mouth and direct it not only to the restorative dentistry, but also to the surgeon when performing the crown length. Diagnostic waxing was performed by the laboratory technician, obeying anterior posterior incisal and gingival criteria and curvatures, which were transported to an aesthetic guide through mock up to mark the surgical points. Then, surgery to increase the clinical crown with bone access and after healing, direct venners in composite resin also guided by waxing. In conclusion, a workflow can be established using the wax-up / mock-up that serves as a guide for the periodontist in the approach to surgical lengthening of the crown and for the rehabilitator who uses it to produce changes in the shape of dental dimensions .

Although dental trauma is poorly managed by general dental practices, it is important to follow appropriate steps to achieve optimal results. This case report outlines the management of non-vital immature teeth with calcium hydroxide and reverse Gutta Percha (GP) cone cold lateral compaction to achieving endodontic success. Even though it is a disputed technique, if proper conditions are provided, the root development continues to preserve a functionally fit and sound tooth on the arch of a young adolescence, avoiding extensive surgical and prosthetic procedures to replace a potentially compromised tooth. This case report highlights the beneficial effects of both calcium hydroxide and Chlorhexidine-dygluconate (CHX), which are far to be obsolete in the field of apexification or even regenerative dentistry as a whole.The 11 years old male presents post-traumatic necrosis in the upper left lateral incisor (tooth 2.2) which is dressed with calcium hydroxide, achieving the disinfection of the root canal, remission of the apical periodontitis and complete root formation 1 year later. The importance of the use of biocompatible materials as calcium hydroxide and CHX are emphasized in this case in which, although, no modern regenerative procedures and materials were used, the results are more than satisfactory. This report will look into the management of a non-vital immature lateral incisor with a reverse GP cone lateral compaction to achieving a successful apical and canal seal radiographically.
