title: Modern restorative management of patients with congenitally missing teeth: 2. Orthodontic and restorative considerations.
abstract: Managing edentulous spaces in patients with congenitally missing teeth demands careful planning and, often, a multidisciplinary approach. Orthodontic tooth movement can be considered to close spaces as well as improve the distribution of available teeth. In this second paper, the advantages of a collaborative approach are discussed.
