"The view" and the canine connection: an atlas of mandibular anterior tooth esthetics.
Restoring splinted mandibular incisors and canines with full crown restorations has always presented a challenge in creating an esthetic illusion of reality of normal individual teeth. This treatise is designed to present the rules for mandibular anterior esthetics that have been distilled from almost 4 decades of clinical practice of restoring dentitions that have been severely compromised by the deformities of disease or accident. The resultant formula systematically creates the desired results with a high degree of predictability.
