Abstract

This clinical case report illustrates the successful rehabilitation of a patient presenting with rotated teeth, diastema, and interdental spacing through the use of minimally invasive adhesive restorations. The treatment strategy involved the application of no-prep veneers to enhance overall dental aesthetics while preserving natural tooth structure.
