Abstract
Dentition defects damage the integrity of the dental arch, affecting smile esthetics and oral function. Compared to restorative treatment, pre-restoration orthodontic treatment overcomes the limitations of a single method, effectively avoiding excessive wear of natural teeth, reducing the number of units for restorative production to a certain extent, and potentially improving facial shape and occlusal relationship, which maximizes the therapeutic effect. This article explores the key points of pre-restoration orthodontic treatment for different types of dentition defects in terms of malocclusion manifestations, treatment objectives, treatment methods, and maintenance recommendations from the perspective of combined orthodontic restoration treatment.
