Abstract
Peg-shaped maxillary lateral incisors cause many functional and esthetic major consequences in affected patients. Their esthetic and functional rehabilitations are often multidisciplinary, involving different clinical procedures like periodontal, orthodontic, or prosthodontic procedures. No exhaustive protocol has been established to improve their comprehensive management by general dentists or specialists. The aim of this article is to elaborate a simplified clinical protocol of complete management of peg-shaped maxillary lateral incisors by a multidisciplinary team (general practitioners, orthodontists, and prosthodontists). A clinical case of two peg-shaped maxillary lateral incisors completely rehabilitated with multidisciplinary approaches including orthodontic treatment and restoration by veneers and direct composite resin, according to the established protocol. Extraoral, intraoral, and smile clinical analysis are crucial to ensure optimal rehabilitation. Treatment results previsualization via wax-up and/or mock-up play a key role in the communication between practitioner and patient to help the latter make decision. These options also facilitate the achievement of a multidisciplinary approach by accurately estimating the number of dental movements and the type of restorations that are most suitable to the presenting clinical situation.
