Any esthetic correction calls for right expertise and knowledge. Such rehabilitation can be achieved successfully with the aid of numerous treatment approaches. Orthodontic treatment is one of the most conservative approach for such cases but it is not an acceptable treatment option for most of the patients due to various reasons like long treatment time, financial constraints, appearance during the therapy, and relapse after the treatment.
