Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Oral and Dental Research - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Abstract: Satisfying patients’ high expectations for dental esthetics is one of the challenges in contemporary dental therapy for both clinicians and dental technicians. The prevalence of dental fluorosis appears high in some area. Its severe form results in great psychological distress to the affected individual. The purpose of this report is to demonstrate the use of restorative materials used for treatment of different levels of fluorosis for a young patient. Maxillary individual crowns were constructed and cemented for a 30 years old teacher male patient presenting with severe fluorosis along with missing maxillary right canine tooth. The lower teeth were treated with in-office bleaching. These types of treatment by all ceramic crowns and in-office bleaching boosted the self-esteem of the patient with better social interaction especially as a teacher by profession. Keywords: Fluoresced teeth, aesthetic, all ceramic crowns, bleaching.
