Abstract

A method for predictably altering anterior esthetics with composite resins is presented. The diagnostic wax-up is the key element. It is used to make a patient presentation cast and to customize resin forms. The resin forms are used to reproduce the predicted tooth form in the mouth quickly and accurately. The method should alert the dentist to the technical feasibility of the planned treatment and the difficulties that may be encountered. In addition, it should alleviate potential misunderstanding and disappointment of the patient. Finally, diagnostic waxing is time saving and simplifies the chairside procedure.
