Orthodontic treatment using clear aligners for millimeter control and with prior digital planning of the deciduous canine space to transform it into a larger, more aesthetic, and more functional tooth.

In cases of agenesis where several permanent teeth are missing, implant placement cannot be performed until adulthood.

Therefore, orthodontics is used to make the deciduous tooth aesthetically resemble a permanent tooth, by reshaping the gum, opening the space in front and behind to allow for a composite reconstruction. This will enable us to wait for implant placement in a more comfortable and aesthetic manner.

Additionally, the left crossbite has been corrected, the gums have been leveled, the smile curve has been inverted, spaces have been closed, and the midline has been centered.
