Abstract:
A patient with severe periodontitis has causative factors that cause pathological tooth movement, the occlusion is disintegrated, and the vicious cycle of worsening periodontitis is repeated. In particular, when pathological tooth movement occurs in the maxillary anterior region, the patient has an aesthetic sense of atrophy, and the quality of life was reduced. Therefore, when orthodontic treatment was added to patients with severe periodontitis, it promotes the formation of new bone, reduces periodontal cysts, and obtains clinical attachment, which leads to favorable results in prosthetic restoration, thereby enabling ideal occlusion, function and aesthetics. Periodontal treatment, orthodontic treatment, natural tooth restoration, and implant prosthesis were planned for patients with pathological tooth movement in the anterior region due to loss of occlusal support in the posterior region. As a result, an ideal restoration space was secured, a stable restoration of occlusal contact was formed, and the maxillary anterior teeth were aesthetically improved.
