Abstract
Areas of demineralised enamel, usually referred to as white spot lesions (WSLs), constitute to a clinical problem in Orthodontics following treatment with fixed appliances. They result due to an imbalance between de- and remineralisation of enamel, caused by the inter-relationship of several factors. This manuscript is intended to elucidate the presentation of a clinical case treated with orthodontic braces with 10-year follow up, and management of demineralization with veneers that occurred due to long term fixed orthodontic treatment. The goal of treatment has been achieved according to patient’s desire and satisfactory digital veneer placement. No further relapse has been seen in the follow up. The treatment resulted in an aesthetic, functional, and stable occlusion, along with improved facial profile.
