Diagnosis of esthetic disorders and complex rehabilitation in patients with dental arch defects: a theoretical and statistical review

Abstract

Dental arch defects represent a major contributor to aesthetic disharmony and functional imbalance within the stomatognathic system. Contemporary prosthodontics emphasizes not only restoration of missing teeth but also the preservation and enhancement of facial aesthetics, phonetics, and psychosocial well-being. This article presents a theoretical and statistical analysis of diagnostic principles and comprehensive rehabilitation strategies for aesthetic disturbances associated with dental arch defects. The study synthesizes data from international scientific databases, peer-reviewed articles, and academic dissertations to identify prevailing diagnostic approaches, prevalence patterns, and evidence-based rehabilitation concepts. Emphasis is placed on multidimensional aesthetic evaluation, digital diagnostic technologies, and interdisciplinary treatment planning. Statistical trends demonstrate a growing prevalence of partial edentulism and increasing demand for aesthetic-oriented rehabilitation. The findings highlight the necessity of integrated diagnostic frameworks and individualized treatment concepts to achieve predictable aesthetic outcomes. This work contributes to the theoretical foundation of aesthetic rehabilitation and supports the development of standardized diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms.
