Objectives:
- The 3 treatment options for the congenitally missing lateral incisor - and they don't include dental implants!
- Orthodontic and periodontal needs for peg lateral and canine substitution cases
- Minimally invasive solutions to create esthetic and functional restorations in maxillary lateral incisor replacement and canine substitution cases
Course Description:
Small teeth but big challenges; what is the best treatment option for the congenitally missing lateral incisor? What is the appropriate age to place a dental implant in a young adult? Is the missing lateral incisor just a single tooth issue?
In this program, participants will learn the key factors in determining which patient cases are best suited for space creation, and those that are appropriate for canine substitution in congenitally missing lateral incisor situations. The collaboration necessary between orthodontist, periodontist, and restorative dentist for clinical success will be reviewed in detail to help the clinician understand the steps in treatment critical for esthetic and functional success. Information regarding irregularities in tooth size, shape and positions with other teeth in the maxillary arch that are commonly seen in congenitally missing lateral incisor cases will be shared. Clinical cases showing naturally esthetic restorative outcomes will be shown with the step-by-step techniques demonstrated.
