Aesthetic correction of double tooth: simplified technique

Abstract

The aim of this study is to report aesthetic conservative treatment of double tooth anomaly. Case report: A 7.5-year-old patient presents an anomaly of the maxillary right upper central incisor with a bifid crown and an increased mesio-distal width and a central incisal notch, probably amenable to a gemination. Single tooth anesthesia and conservative enameloplasty procedure was performed, with universal adhesive and a single shade universal composite restorative material. Adhesive aesthetic restorations allow to resolve dental anomalies quickly, cheaply and asily for pediatric dentistry.

Keywords: double tooth; one-shade aesthetic composite; single tooth anesthesia; universal adhesive.
