Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction: In today's dental practice one of the biggest challenges of the dentist is to restore spacing in anterior teeth when orthodontic treatment is not feasible, because of increasing aesthetic concern and patient's expectation for natural looking smile. An unpleasant smile traumatizes the patient psychologically, looses the self confidence and is a cause of social embarrassment. There are several treatment options available to enhance the aesthetic and beauty of smile like composite restorations, full veneer crown, laminates to more complex treatment involving surgical procedures. Case report: This case report is about a young male patient who reported with a complaint of open spaces in upper anterior teeth with a desire to enhance the aesthetics and smile. He was successfully treated with laminate veneers by following minimally invasive techniques using aesthetic pre-evaluative temporaries (APT). Veneers fabricated using lithium disilicate and bonded with resin cement. Conclusion: In today's Dental Practice, the concept of minimal invasive procedure for preservation of tooth structure, laminate veneers would be the ideal choice for restoring spacing between anterior teeth.
