Clinical Report: Esthetic Rehabilitation Using Injectable Composite Resin Technique
Overview
A 23-year-old female patient underwent esthetic rehabilitation using an injectable composite resin technique due to dissatisfaction with her smile. The approach provided immediate esthetic improvement while preserving her retained primary teeth until their natural exfoliation.
Background
In cases of agenesis of permanent teeth, traditional rehabilitation methods may involve extensive treatment plans, which some patients may decline. This report highlights a conservative approach that offers immediate results while delaying more invasive procedures.
Data Highlights
No numerical data or trial data available in the source material.
Key Findings
- The patient presented with retained primary teeth and agenesis of permanent successors.
- A conservative interim approach was selected to provide immediate esthetic rehabilitation.
- The injectable composite resin technique utilized a silicone index for accurate reproduction of planned anatomy.
- Beautifil Flow Plus® restorative material was used for optimal shade matching and esthetic integration.
- This method allows for clinical time management and minimally invasive esthetic improvement.
Clinical Implications
The use of retained primary teeth as a provisional foundation can facilitate immediate esthetic improvements while preserving tooth structure.
Conclusion
This case demonstrates the effectiveness of a conservative esthetic rehabilitation approach using injectable composite resin.
