The perio-aesthetic-restorative approach for anterior reconstruction--Part II: Restorative treatment.
Inherent differences have been identified between multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary treatment approaches. This article demonstrates the restorative techniques used for the treatment of a patient with congenitally missing lateral incisors according to the interdisciplinary concept outlined in Part I. The restorative design and material selection were based on the size and shape of the existing ridge, occlusion, evaluation of previous treatment, the ability of the restoration to mimic the natural dentition and the supporting gingival tissues, and the patient's expectations and finances.
