THE RESTORATION OF ONE OR SEVERAL ANTERIOR MAXILLARY TEETH IS A CHALLENGE FOR EVERY DENTIST
Indeed the patient’s aesthetic expectations are great today especially if he complained about previous restorations, and in many cases the final outcome heavily depends on the protocol and the materials used.
DUE TO HIS CALIBRATED MEDIUM TRANSLUCENCY BALANCE
It’s very easy to match the color and to hide margin preparations, despite the use of a reduced number of shades, and to achieve predictable and high quality results every day both from an esthetic and clinical point of view.
16 years old female patient came to the office to change previous inappropriate class IV direct composite restorations. The initial situation with teeth in occlusion gives us valuable information about color and opacity as well.
I never bevel the inter-proximal and palatal margins because it would be much more difficult to stratify and finish. All modern composite materials need a solid and not so thin interface.
Brilliant EverGlow represents a new generation of composite material with special fillers. Due to its smart translucency balance, the shades integrate extremely harmoniously into the existing dental arch.
The final outcome showing a natural integration in shape and color with a very high lustre.
Restorations with a minimal invasive approach were chosen to improve aesthetics with composite restorations in one session.
The main challenge in these situations is to evenly split the space between the centrals. But two metal matrices can help the dental practitioner to better see where the midline is placed.
All four veneers were reconstructed. As a composite material I used Brilliant OA2 for proximal and for the last composite layer A2 Brilliant Ever Glow, Coltene.
The final aspect after finishing and polishing. It took 3.5 hours, divided in two sessions: anesthesia, isolation, cavity preparation, proximal reconstruction, vestibular reconstruction, and finishing procedure.
Predictable way to have a nice direct veneer with an easily polishable composite material using only.
To make sure that we choose the right color we always can use the button try technique. We put 1.5 mm thickness of composite on the tooth and check the color with a Polarizer filter (Smile Lite).
To create the illusion of perykimata we always use diamond Perio bur from StyleItaliano Finishing Kit (Komet) at a very low speed without water irrigation.
