متن کاملCongenitally missing maxillary lateral incisors and orthodontic treatment considerations for the single-tooth implant.

The central incisor and canine often erupt in less than optimal positions adjacent to the edentulous lateral incisor space, and therefore preprosthetic orthodontic treatment is frequently required. Derotation of the central incisor and canine, space closure and correction of...
