Insights regarding esthetics in interdisciplinary treatments
Prezentare
Roxana Petcu
In the treatment of adult patients, we often times face abraded teeth that compromise the esthetics in the frontal area by having shorter crown length, compensatory eruption and a higher exposure of the gingiva. In order to have a pleasing esthetic result in the end of treatment, the interdisciplinary team has to have a clear vision and planning of the final positioning of the gingival margins, together with the desired proportions of the teeth and especially the desired level of the final incisal margins.
Here plays the orthodontist a key role in generating these three dimensional positions of the abraded teeth in these complex cases and therefore allowing the prosthodontist to be as minimally invasive as possible. The aim of this presentation is to go through the thinking and planning steps in these particular cases using clinical cases to exemplify and discuss different strategies and outcomes.
