Happy Independence Day Malaysia! 🇲🇾✨
Let’s take a look at this case where the central incisors decided to be “independent” of each other….Yeap, we’re talking about Median Diastema [spacing between your front teeth].🤗
Why not Braces? 🤔 Answer’s in the second part of this caption.☺️But first, let’s walk through the treatment. 🦷
To achieve this result:
Composite Restoration removal • Smile Design • In-office Dental Whitening • Mock-Up • 8 unit Composite Veneers
Patient initially came in with old, overhanging composite filling on her centrals (swipe left to see). Note that how the overhanging margins have caused Gingivitis!
We discussed about the treatment option of getting Orthodontics treatment (“braces”) to close the gap after filling removal, but before that, we have to consider 2 things:
🦷 Width of the Central Incisors and the Laterals might not be of the proper proportion after filling removal. IPR may be required on the laterals to balance out the ratio.
🦷Patient still has a Class III occlusion (lower teeth are in a more “frontward” position) despite having Braces done before. We might need lower IPR/premolar extractions/retraction with TADs if we were to close that upper teeth gap.
A few other treatment options were discussed and in the end, she decided to proceed with composite veneers.
It is important to discuss treatment options with the patient and go through the pros and cons with them. I always allow my patients to think about their treatment options for a few weeks prior finalising the treatment plan to better the outcome and expectations.☺️
Have a great holiday and a great week ahead yall!🤗

Back with another patient who wants her bunny teeth corrected.🐰 I think it looks pretty cute on her, but patient wants it corrected so let’s see what we can do!
To achieve this result:
Smile Design • In-office Dental Whitening • Mock-Up • 8 unit Composite Veneers
Despite having Orthodontic tx completed few months ago, she is still unhappy about the length of her central incisors. We advised for Ortho treatment to intrude her centrals since that is her concern but she isn’t keen on re-treatment. She initially wanted her central incisors to be trimmed off as she dislike the length. After a round of discussion (I explained about the centrals’ length as well as her small laterals giving the illusion of “even larger centrals”),we decided to proceed with a mock up (“smile try-in”) without reducing the length of the front teeth and see how it looks. Although it means more work and clinical time, but it’s in patient’s best interest.
After mock up, she still think that the centrals are tad bit long and with the increased length of other teeth, it affected her phonation (speech) as well, so we proceed with Enameloplasty on her centrals as well as composite veneers from 4-4z
Conservative dentistry is our goal, but in certain cases where patient’s request is within reasonable range, I’ll let patient make the final decision since their set of smile ultimately belongs to them. 😁
Btw, like the last pic? Concept from @drkimmkwang !😍 Love her style haha!
Have a great week ahead yall!🤗

After getting her Ortho (braces) treatment completed, she wanted her “bunny teeth” to be corrected as well. 🐰 Now the question is, what makes her teeth “bunny-like”? Large Centrals? Small Laterals? Low gum line? Or maybe….all?🤓
To achieve this result:
Gingivectomy • Smile Design • In-office Dental Whitening • Mock-Up • Composite Veneers
Note that her 21 axis is a little slanted (in simple words, “Senget”🤣) and she want it corrected as well. Upon mock-up, we have discussed about the need for Enameloplasty to achieve the tooth form she wanted, or to increase veneer thickness (which wouldn’t look as nice as planned but we still offer it as a treatment option because…patient’s decision matters!😊). She decided to proceed with Enameloplasty so we went with it.
I will always try to keep my Enameloplasty minimal and within enamel, so the resin bonding would be more ideal.
It was really fun working on this case as patient knows what she wants and is super understanding as well. What makes our job great is most often not the set of teeth itself, but the patients we work with!😍
Have a great week ahead yall!🤗
