Diastema Closure, Midline Diastema, Laser- Assisted Frenectomy
Abstract
Midline diastema in an adult is a major esthetic problem, treatment depending on the etiological factors, size, occlusion and extent of diastema. Commonest causes are high attachment of labial frenum, dentoalveolar disproportion, proclination etc. A 19 year old female patient reported with maxillary midline diastema and high frenal attachment. Laser frenectomy was done using diode laser and midline diastema was closed with light activated composite resin. 6 months follow up was done. There are various treatment options available for the closure of diastema depending on the clinical situation. Laser-assisted frenectomy is much more comfortable for the patient because there is minimal per-operative bleeding and no suture required. Thus a combination of laser based frenectomy followed by immediate composite resin restoration solves the problem of diastema in single sitting.
