Abstract

To identify the clinical cases of patients undergoing diastema closure with direct composite in specific age group and gender. Diastema is defined that spaces more than 0.5mm between the proximal surfaces of adjacent teeth. The continuing presence of diastema between Maxillary central incisors in adults is often considered as an esthetic or malocclusion problem. Diastemas can be closed by orthodontically, restoratively and also with prosthodontics. Evaluation of patients who reported to Saveetha dental hospital for diastema closure using direct composite. Results were statistically analysed with SPSS software. From the results obtained in the study, young aged adults were more common (70%) and males (62%) were more common to undergo diastema closure using direct composite. Central incisors more commonly had diastema, young aged males reported with higher incidence for diastema closure with direct composite. There was no significant difference between age group, gender and diastema closure.
