Pre Orthodontics Frenectomy: Flip side of the coin- A case report
Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2019, Vol 33, Issue 33
Abstract
Maxillary midline diastema is a common aesthetic problem in mixed and early permanent dentitions. The space can occur either as a transient malocclusion or created by developmental, pathological or iatrogenic factors. Many innovative therapies varying from restorative procedures such as composite build-up to surgery (frenectomies) and orthodontics are available. Although literature says every frenectomy procedure should be preceded by orthodontic treatment, we opted for frenectomy technique prior to orthodontic intervention with a null hypothesis to test the other side of the coin. Presented herewith is a case report of a 27-year-old Female with a high frenal attachment that had caused spacing of the maxillary central incisors. A closure of the midline diastema was noted within 6 months following frenectomy & adjunct orthodontic treatment.
