April 05, 2023

Abstract

Maxillary anterior spacing is a common aesthetic concern among patients. Labial frenulum, microdontia, mesiodens, peg shaped lateral incisors, agenesis, cysts, and habits such as finger sucking, tongue thrusting, or lip sucking, dental malformations, genetics, proclinations, dental-skeletal discrepancies, and imperfect coalescence of the interdental septum all contribute to midline diastema. Appropriate technique and material for effective treatment are determined by time, physical, psychological, and financial constraints. In diastema cases, direct composite resins provide the dentist and patient complete control over these limitations and the development of a confident smile. In this case report a midline diastema in the maxillary arch was aesthetically managed with direct composite resin in two appointments.
