Case Presentation:

Comprehensive Aesthetic Smile Makeover with Whitening, White Spot Lesion Treatment, and Diastema Closure

Patient Information:

• Name: Mr T. Shah
• Age: 28 years
• Gender: Male

Chief Complaint:

Mr Shah sought dental intervention for a combination of aesthetic concerns related to his upper front teeth. His main goals were to close the diastema (gap) between his upper central incisors, enhance the shape of the lateral incisors, and address a white spot lesion on the upper left central incisor (UL1)

Clinical Examination:

Intraoral examination revealed a midline diastema, a white spot lesion on the UL1, and lateral incisors with slight irregularities in shape. The overall oral health of Mr Shah was satisfactory, with no active decay or gum disease.

Treatment Plan:

To address his aesthetic concerns, a comprehensive treatment plan was created, which involved a combination of minimally invasive procedures:

• Teeth Whitening: The treatment began with professional teeth whitening to achieve a brighter and more uniform tooth shade, enhancing the overall aesthetic foundation.
• White Spot Lesion Treatment: ICON by DMG was used to treat the white spot lesion on the UL1. This minimally invasive approach preserved the enamel while significantly improving the appearance of the affected area.
• Diastema Closure and Lateral Incisor Enhancement: Composite veneers were planned for diastema closure and lateral incisor enhancement. B1 shade Venus Pearl composite material was chosen for its natural appearance and color match.

Treatment Timeline:

• Initial Consultation and Treatment Planning: 1 hour
• Teeth Whitening: 4 weeks
• White Spot Lesion Treatment with ICON: 1 hour
• Diastema Closure and Lateral Incisor Veneer Placement: 2 hours

Post-Operative Care:

He received detailed post-operative care instructions, including guidance on oral hygiene practices, dietary considerations, and the importance of regular dental visits to maintain the longevity of his newly enhanced smile.

Outcome and Conclusion:

The comprehensive aesthetic treatment plan effectively addressed his concerns and resulted in a transformative smile makeover. The combination of teeth whitening, minimally invasive white spot lesion treatment, and composite veneers for diastema closure and lateral incisor enhancement yielded outstanding results.

His smile was enhanced while preserving the integrity of his natural tooth structure. His increased self-confidence and satisfaction illustrate the positive impact of personalised aesthetic dentistry. This case exemplifies the significance of utilising modern
