Abstract
The fractured incisor is a common occurrence in general dental practice. Achieving a positive aesthetic outcome and maximising bond strength is central to patient satisfaction and ensuring restoration longevity. Correct shade selection and the reproduction of natural anatomy in composite resin can be challenging in the anterior labial segments where the human eye’s ability to detect asymmetry plays an important role. An understanding of tooth morphology and how to replicate it will aid in this procedure. This article aims to describe a step-by-step approach towards successful morphological replication in Class IV composite resin restorations. Composite shade selection, placement techniques and polishing methods will be covered.
