Enamel Hypoplasia Enhancing Esthetics with Direct Composite Veneering Using IPS Empress Direct - A Case Report

Abstract

Enamel hypoplasia affects the hard tissues of the teeth. It occurs due to disturbances during the formation of the tooth. It often leads to unesthetic appearance due to pitting and yellowish or brownish appearance of the teeth. The tooth structure becomes weak and subject to chipping. Restoration of esthetics in such cases is a challenge. Direct composite veneering allows the esthetic makeover in such cases. This article presents a case of direct composite veneering done with IPS Empress Direct which is a novel nanohybrid composite that has shown excellent results.
