Abstract

Midline diastema has been a popular aesthetic problem for children. Several treatment options are available, however, the use of elastic bands without other appliances for closing the diastema still remains a pressing issue in Vietnam, which could be done by the patient’s parents either themselves or under the dental practitioners’ suggestion. Objective: To report a specific case about the extensive extrusion regarding upper central incisors in a pediatric patient due to misusing the elastic band, in which management was complex due to an unfavorable situation for splinting. Case Report: Single rubber band usage for orthodontic movement in closing diastema has been an unresolved disaster in Vietnam, leading to the need for early diagnosis and immediate intervention when facing the complications. Conclusion: Significant information dissemination is paramount for long-term improvement in the oral health of pediatric patients in Vietnam and around the world.

Abstract

Mild form of molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) on anterior teeth are posing great challenges to dental practitioners as it can have a huge aesthetic impact. In terms of deep MIH-related lesion below the healthy enamel, highly invasive methods for approaching the lesion body and removing the entire hypomineralized enamel using burs could lead to failures including aesthetic problems and even further tooth structure damage to the affected teeth. Case report: To resolve t his issue, we have proposed a modified resin infiltration technique based on the minimally invasive philosophy. In this study, we would like to report three specific cases about the use of the technique, which has the potential to restore the naturally aesthetic appearance for the anterior teeth while maintaining healthy tooth structure. Conclusion: Recovering the natural appearance of anterior teeth requires thorough attention to the aesthetics and integrity of the affected teeth. The proposed modified resin infiltration technique has been illustrated to bring back the natural morphology and maximally protect the healthy structure to ensure a long-term treatment outcome. The technique should be implemented to a significant degree for the long-term improvement in the oral health of pediatric patients in Vietnam and around the world.
