Case Study
Implant therapy enhanced by orthodontics
By Dr. Maciej Stupka, Dr. Wojciech Stós
This case shows a situation where orthodontics was critical for developing the optimal space for replacing a missing maxillary central incisor, one which matched the adjacent natural tooth. Not only did the tooth movement develop the space necessary for a full sized crown, it provided a soft tissue papilla between the central and lateral incisors. Both aspects were critical for developing a functional and aesthetic restoration
