en ترمیمی Cosmetic and Restorative Dentistry پژوهشي Research <p> The :::union::: of two different dental sprouts which can happen in any phase of dental development is<br>commonly called fusion. This developmental anomaly may cause clinical problems including esthetic<br>impairment, which are mainly treated by endodontic and surgical treatments. There are a few reports<br>of conservative not invasive treatment of fused incisors teeth through restorative or prosthetic<br>techniques. They are rarely reported in mandibular posterior teeth. This paper presents an unusual<br>case of fusion of 7 and 8, and also 9 and 10 teeth which was treated with a nonendodontic and<br>nonsurgical conservative approach. Patient was a healthy18-year-old female with chief complaint<br>of bad-looking teeth that in intraoral examination revealed the fusion of 7 and 8, and also 9 and 10<br>teeth. The space between the mesial of the 6 and 11 teeth was reconstructed. Diastema between<br>the fused teeth was closed. A new lateral tooth was replaced between the fused teeth (7 and 8)<br>and 6 tooth with direct fiber-reinforced composite. The space between the fused teeth (9 and 10)<br>and also tooth 11 was partially closed. Gingival papillas were reconstructed using pink composite.<br>The mandibular anterior missing teeth were replaced with rochett bridge. At the end of treatment<br>the esthetic of the patient was improved. As the treatment was not invasive, major complications<br>are not expected however, there is potential for eventual long-term periodontal problems due to<br>poor oral hygiene. Debonding of the rochett bridge may happen as well.</p><hr><p></p><p> <strong>Source:</strong> Dental Research Journal</p><p><a href="http://www.drj.mui.ac.ir/index.php/drj/article/view/904"><font color="#0000ff"> Full text</font></a> </p> Fusion, incisors, non-invasive management 0 0 http://idai.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-32-388&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Puran Samimi 10031947532846001629 10031947532846001629 No Department of Operative Dentistry and Torabinejad Dental Research Center, School of Dentistry, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran Mohammad reza Shirban 10031947532846001630 10031947532846001630 No Department of Operative Dentistry, School of Dentistry, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran Farahnaz Arbabzadeh Zavareh arbabzadeh@dnt.mui.ac.ir 10031947532846001631 10031947532846001631 Yes Department of Operative Dentistry and Torabinejad Dental Research Center, School of Dentistry, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran
