Incisal Edges: More Than Just a Pretty Smile
The incisal edges of anterior teeth play a vital role in both the esthetics of a smile and the functional health of the system. In this webinar we are going to look at how we combine esthetic treatment planning of incisal edge position with optimizing forces to achieve functional success. The anatomy of incisal edges allow for reduced muscle activity and Read More
