Bilateral inverted third molar impaction is an extremely rare condition. We reported the case of a 50-year-old female patient with bilateral inverted and impacted maxillary third molars. Both were asymptomatic and pathology free clinically and radiographically. Surgical extraction of these inverted third molars with inaccessible positions requires an aggressive bone removal on the tuberosity bilaterally. Moreover, it contains a high risk of displacement of the inverted third molar into the maxillary sinus. Conservative management was the choice, with the patient’s agreement, and the inverted third molars were left in situ.
Key words:Bilateral inverted, maxillary third molar, upper impacted tooth.
It is a case report of a minimally invasive technique for diastema restoration with sectional veneer fabrication. It involves a technically demanding procedure and less time with minimal disruption and stress to soft tissue. The method presented in this case report depicts the closure of anterior spacing by an aesthetic sectional veneer. Successful restoration in present-day dentistry includes minimal biological cost, promising longevity and esthetic integration in addition to traditional criteria. However, several other factors influence patient acceptance, such as the uncomplicated technique, possible intraoral repair, reduced soft tissue trauma, and affordable financial cost. The clinical procedure of sectional veneers, presented in this case, introduces an additional treatment option to produce a minimal invasive diastema restoration in a single appointment, with a reduced number of clinical steps.
