Abstract
MONTENEGRO OJEDA, Yadira et al. Central closure jaw diastema conventional cosmetic therapy nanoparticulate resin. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2016, vol.53, n.3, pp. 168-175. ISSN 1561-297X.
There are many factors that influence the success of cosmetic treatment for the closure of a central diastema, because of the multiple causes to the presence of this entity. Among them, the traumatic avulsion of one of the central incisors is one of the largest and most complex problems to be solved. The objective is to describe a case of closure of a central maxillar diastema to restore the aesthetic appearance of a patient, using resin as a restorer nano-particle material. As part of the treatment to a male 25-year-old patient with mild mental retardation and history of dental injury with avulsion of the right 1.1 maxillary central incisor, the closure of the upper central diastema was performed with the application of nano-particle resin, prior to preparation of biomechanics and acid application. The technique used constitute is a therapeutic alternative that greatly benefits the patient. With the sequence of the proposed steps, which offers numerous advantages compared to that presented by other authors in similar cases, the aesthetic appearance of the patient was reestablished after just one visit by the appropriate clinical diagnosis and thorough a planned treatment.
