Esthetic evaluation and treatment of the maxillary anterior--a case report.
Achieving an optimal esthetic result can be very challenging. As in other dental disciplines, attention to detail must be followed at all stages, starting with thorough diagnosis and treatment planning. Better understanding and fewer potential problems result when dentists communicate with patients by educating them about their treatment options and keeping them involved. In this case, decisions regarding orthodontics and periodontics were made easily because of a complete understanding between the patient and dentist. Informing patients of the advantages and disadvantages of various treatment options allows them to make more informed decisions.
