Abstract
Introduction: Dental anomalies present a significant challenge to clinicians due to their impact on both dental function and esthetics. The correction of these anomalies plays a critical role in improving the quality of life of our patients, highlighting the importance of this restorative work.
Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to assess the techniques used to restore various dental anomalies, and their subsequent esthetic impact on the overall dentition.
Methods: Inclusion criteria consisted of restorative rehabilitations of the permanent dentition in non-syndromic patients with dental anomalies of morphology, structure, size, and number in the maxillary incisors. Exclusion criteria included surgical rehabilitation techniques, endodontic treatments, and anomalies of the primary dentition. The medical literature was systematically searched (Pubmed, PMC, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Clinical trials, Scopus and Google Scholar) to identify all relevant articles reporting data regarding the chosen anomalies. ROBINS-I was used to assess the risk of bias tool, and the results were tabulate due to data heterogeneity.
Results: Of the 1821 analyzed articles, 46 articles met the inclusion criteria, and were chosen to go through the final review procedure. Of the selected articles, 3 investigated amelogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta, 1 analyzed conoid teeth, 1 considered hypodontia (other than MLIA), 3 concerned microdontia (excluding peg laterals and conoid teeth), 10 evaluated peg-shaped laterals, 2 investigated talon cusps and geminated teeth, 15 were regarding maxillary lateral incisor agenesis, and 11 papers were related to the perception of anomalies.
Conclusions: Pre-visualization using Digital Smile Design, a treatment plan encompassing minimally invasive restorations, and using a multidisciplinary approach among practitioners helps the anomalous patient achieve the best possible esthetic result.

Aims
Bioengineering (ISSN 2306-5354) provides an advanced forum for the science and technology of bioengineering. It publishes original research papers, comprehensive reviews, communications and case reports. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. All aspects of bioengineering are welcomed from theoretical concepts to education and applications. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. There are, in addition, four key features of this Journal:
● We are introducing a new concept in scientific and technical publications “The Translational Case Report in Bioengineering”. It is a descriptive explanatory analysis of a transformative or translational event. Understanding that the goal of bioengineering scholarship is to advance towards a transformative or clinical solution to an identified transformative/clinical need, the translational case report is used to explore causation in order to find underlying principles that may guide other similar transformative/translational undertakings.
● Manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed.
● Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
● We also accept manuscripts communicating to a broader audience with regard to research projects financed with public funds.
Scope
● Bionics and biological cybernetics: implantology; bio–abio interfaces
● Bioelectronics: wearable electronics; implantable electronics; “more than Moore” electronics; bioelectronics devices
● Bioprocess and biosystems engineering and applications: bioprocess design; biocatalysis; bioseparation and bioreactors; bioinformatics; bioenergy; etc.
● Biomolecular, cellular and tissue engineering and applications: tissue engineering; chromosome engineering; embryo engineering; cellular, molecular and synthetic biology; metabolic engineering; bio-nanotechnology; micro/nano technologies; genetic engineering; transgenic technology
● Biomedical engineering and applications: biomechatronics; biomedical electronics; biomechanics; biomaterials; biomimetics; biomedical diagnostics; biomedical therapy; biomedical devices; sensors and circuits; biomedical imaging and medical information systems; implants and regenerative medicine; neurotechnology; clinical engineering; rehabilitation engineering
● Biochemical engineering and applications: metabolic pathway engineering; modeling and simulation
● Translational bioengineering
