Midline Diastema Closure in a Single Visit: Case Repot
Published: 2024-06-20

Abstract

Diastema, which refers to the space between two teeth, can occur for a variety of reasons and is common in the front part of the upper jaw. Diastemas with several causes, such as size anomalies, congenital tooth loss, atypical swallowing, and hyper¬trophy of the labial frenulum, can be treated with minimally inva¬sive techniques. Direct prepless composite resin restorations can be economical and successful after the treatment of abnormal frenum. In this case report, a one-shade restorative material is used to restore diastema in the anterior region in a single visit. The success of the final restorations were assessed in 3 month, 9 month and 18 month follow ups.
