AbstractTo evaluate the effectiveness of orthodontics in combination with porcelain laminate veneers (PLV) in the aesthetic restoration and flora regulation of anterior teeth. A retrospective analysis of 336 patients who underwent aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth in our hospital from April 2019 to September 2022 was performed and divided into a control group (n = 168) and an observation group (n = 168) according to the restorative modality. The restorative modality in the control group was conventional restorative remediation, while the restorative modality in the observation group was orthodontic combined with PLV treatment. To evaluate the excellent rate of aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth in the 2 groups, and compare the color, shape, degree of translucency, edge aesthetic score, complications and satisfaction rate of restoration of anterior teeth in the 2 groups before and after restoration. The observation group had a significantly higher rate of excellent aesthetic restorations (95.23%) compared to the control group (80.95%) (P < .001). The scores of anterior tooth color, morphology, degree of translucency and marginal aesthetics were improved in both groups after restoration compared to before restoration, and the scores were significantly higher in the observation group (P < .05). After restoration, the subgingival Digestive streptococcus, Campylobacter and Propionibacterium increased in both groups, but the number of bacterial strains was significantly less in the observation group (P < .05). Compared with the total complication rate in the control group (16.66%), the total complication rate in the observation group (2.38%) was significantly lower (P < .001). Compared with the control group (85.71%), the observation group had a significantly higher restoration satisfaction rate of 97.61%, with a statistically significant difference (P < .001). The application of orthodontics combined with PLV in the aesthetic restoration of anterior teeth has a significant clinical effect, which is conducive to improving the aesthetic restoration and satisfaction rate of anterior teeth, reducing the subgingival microbial imbalance and decreasing the incidence of complications.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
