Aesthetic Conservative Management of Fluorosis Affected Teeth with Resin Infiltration: Case Report

Abstract

Aims: The scientific case report aims to show recent technique of minimally invasive procedure for aesthetic resolution in moderate to severe fluorosis affected teeth.
 Presentation of Case: A clinical case of severe fluorosis was treated with microabrasion followed by resin infiltration. A commercial resin was applied on the facial surfaces of the anterior teeth resulting in masking of spots and re-establishing color uniformity.
 Discussion: The procedure proved to be a good option to mask spots associated with moderate to severe fluorosis. Moreover, it is a relatively quick, inexpensive and minimally invasive treatment.
 Conclusion: This case report demonstrates that the microabrasion and resin infiltration technique is an effective conservative aesthetic treatment. It minimizes an individual’s tooth discoloration when diagnosed with moderate to severe levels of dental fluorosis and has shown a good outcome even after twelve months.
