Case collection for diastema closure with composite resin 9 nine cases

Successful anterior diastema closure using direct composite resin is dependent upon several factors: proper adhesion of material to tooth, development of the emergence profile and natural tooth contours, harmony with surrounding gingival tissues, and color matching and blending. Often little or no tooth preparation is required, especially in cases of disproportionate tooth size, to cosmetically enhance a tooth while maintaining as much healthy tissue as possible. Proper planning, technique, and treatment will result in restorations that simulate the spatial arrangement, relation, and appearance of a patient’s natural surrounding tissues. To create a natural look while performing diastema closure, it is necessary to match the color and opacity of the tooth. The thickness of the enamel and dentin determine the color of the tooth and are subject to change over time. The proper color and opacity of the restoration used to close the diastema are often accomplished by layering multiple shades and opacities of composite (eg, dentin shades followed by enamel shades). While effective, the process of layering multiple shades and opacities is time consuming and may be technically difficult for some clinicians. Accomplishing successful restorations in a more timely and efficient manner using a simplified material technique is desirable for both the patient and dentist. For this reason, it is advantageous for practitioners to seek the use of a single shade of composite that has excellent blending properties when performing diastema closures. #WDB #Lucida #Unica #SOLO #COMPOSITEBONDING #VENEERS #DIASTEMA #TEETH#DENTIST #BONDING #DENTAL   / osama.shaalan     / dr1osama
