The Smile is the most prominent feature of face and teeth are the most important elements of the smile.The presence of an anterior midline diastema and increased overjet in particular has a negative effect on detofacial harmony.[1]
Orthodontic treatment is not possible either due to increased age or patient desire for immediate results, so in these cases prosthodontic rehabilitation appear as treatment of choice to achieve desired results
Oxide ceramic exhibits high biocompatibility with low bacterial surface adhesion, reduced thermal conductivity.[6]. This clinical report presents a case with labial migration of maxillary incisors with increased midline diastema which was managed with prosthodontic rehabilitation
Summary
The Smile is the most prominent feature of face and teeth are the most important elements of the smile.The presence of an anterior midline diastema and increased overjet in particular has a negative effect on detofacial harmony.[1]. The presence of diastema in the anterior aesthetic zone can be displeasing to a person’s smile and many patients are motivated to improve their appearance either with orthodontic treatment or restoratively with veneers, crowns, and/or composite resin bonding.[3] Pathological tooth migration may include extrusion and rotation of anterior teeth.
