Evolução do planejamento e da análise dos princípios estéticos frente à reabilitações de dentes anteriores: uma revisão de literatura

Abstract

The pursuit of aesthetics is timeless, but in dentistry, it has become an increasing concern among patients who seek aligned, whiter teeth with specific shapes, primarily understanding the impact on their social interactions and self-esteem. As dentistry continually evolves due to the high demand for aesthetic procedures in anterior teeth, achieving aesthetically harmonious results with the aid of technologies that make procedures minimally invasive requires skilled professionals. This study aims to conduct a literature review on the evolution of aesthetic principles analysis in the context of minimally invasive rehabilitation in anterior teeth. A bibliographic search was conducted on PubMed, Scielo, and the Virtual Health Library from 2007 to 2021. Aesthetic concern is subjective and influenced by emotions, desires, and social and cultural values. As the pursuit of aesthetic perfection continues to rise, it is the responsibility of the dentist to acquire the necessary skills to provide patients with the expected outcomes. However, professionals can benefit from the interaction between different dental specialties to achieve success.
