Abstract

The improvement in bonding protocols has allowed composite to be a viable alternative to indirect restorations in the management of tooth wear. Although highly conservative of tooth structure, the literature would describe composites as a ‘medium-term’ treatment option, with high patient satisfaction. Their survival has been quoted at five years when used in the treatment of tooth wear at an increased OVD.4 The evidence relates to paste composites, which were not nano-filled. It is clear that there is plenty of scope for research on nano-filled injectable composites in tooth wear cases. They offer a truly conservative treatment option and allow for a highly predictable aesthetic and occlusal outcome through the injection moulding technique.
