Background and objective: Hypoodontia is caused by anomalies in the tooth production process during the beginning or proliferation of the tooth bud. 1. An hereditary dominant syndrome with varied expression is the congenital absence of one or more teeth in absence of systemic problems. 1. Size differences are most typically caused by changes in tooth morphology caused by late perturbations during the differentiation process. 1-5. Though the gene(s) producing hypodontia are unknown, peg-shaped or mesiodistally deficient maxillary lateral incisors show variance in the trait's expression 1-5. The aim of this trial was to use a self-reported survey to examine general practitioners' awareness of the need for prosthodontic, orthodontic, or integrative therapy approaches for the management of peg-shaped lateral incisors. Methodology: A cross-sectional trial was conducted utilising a 16-question questionnaire that was sent as well as circulated to a random sample of 100 general dental surgeons who volunteered to participate. Results: The outcomes were self-explanatory. According to 91 percent of respondents, the most essential treatment goal was to improve aesthetics. 91% of respondents said that combining orthodontic as well as prosthodontic approaches was the best way to attain the best treatment conclusion. Conclusion: Pre-restorative orthodontic therapy is the best option for peg lateral incisor control, according to our research. For the best treatment outcome, a multidisciplinary approach to complex dental treatment is always preferable. Such methods are also used to establish a referral system.
