Abstract:

Esthetics are being much appreciated and respected in the world. Not only in the show business, but also amongst the people as the awareness for health and looks has grown exponentially higher. Patients in the past used to seek dental treatment only when needed for the purpose of alleviating pain or restoring function with dentures. However, with the latest advancements in the medical field as well as many dental specialties, patients will spare no efforts in paying attention to their health looks and smile. Tooth colored restorations, periodontal surgeries, implants, porcelain veneers and crowns are some examples of dental cosmetic treatments. With that being said, sometimes, another specialty like Endodontics, for example, may play an important role in treatment planning when a soft tissue defect appears in esthetic areas of the oral cavity. The purpose of this lecture is to share some knowledge about how some lesions of Endodontic origin may reflect in the oral cavity; and what the available treatment modalities are which can help in restoring, health, function and esthetics without compromising outcomes.
