Orthodontic Management of Midline Diastema and Anterior Spaced Dentition: A Case Report
Abstract: Maxillary midline diastema is one of the most frequently encountered esthetic problems in mixed and permanent dentition. It can occur either as a transient malocclusion or created by developmental, pathological or iatrogenic factors. Proper history taking and correct diagnosis of the etiology of the diastema is essential to ensure that the orthodontic correction is successful, and no future relapse takes place. The following case report presents treatment of an adult female patient having a midline diastema and a spaced upper and lower anterior dentition using conventional straight wire orthodontic technique and closure of spaces.
