Abstract
Aesthetic treatments have gained massive popularity in the recent past. Patients with midline diastema and spacing are among the most common complaints reported to an orthodontic clinic. The major complaint with such cases is the poor aesthetics that accompany them. Although many restorative treatment options are available to treat these cases, their long-term success is still questionable. The primary aetiology is abnormal frenal attachment, as seen in the case. Getting rid of the etiologic factor is vital to attain a stable treatment. In the present case, a frenectomy was performed to correct the abnormal frenal attachment. Even after correcting the aetiology, correct retention protocol is equally essential. The present article presents the treatment of a case with midline diastema and an edge-to-edge bite, and a high frenal attachment.
