Restorative and orthodontic treatment of maxillary peg incisors: a clinical report.
This clinical report describes a combination treatment approach to an esthetic defect that resulted from diastemata and peg-shaped lateral incisors. Minor tooth movement was achieved through the use of a removable orthodontic appliance and orthodontic rubber band, and full-coverage PFM crowns were placed on the lateral incisors. These complementary orthodontic and restorative procedures successfully corrected the defect.
