Abstract

Dental fluorosis results from excessive intake of fluoride either from water resources or products in early childhood. It results in varying degrees of discoloration and pitting of the teeth. This article aims to highlight the conservative management techniques available for managing the aesthetic impact of fluorosis and highlights what can be achieved conservatively with the use of adhesive dentistry. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Fluorosis can have a huge impact on dental aesthetics, depending on its extent. This in turn can affect a patient's confidence and daily life immensely. In the past, severe fluorosis may have been managed in a more destructive manner with indirect restorations.
