Abstract

White spots or patches on permanent incisors are common among young adolescents; this may cause aesthetic concerns for both the patient and the parents equally. Management of developmental defects of enamel (DDE) is challenging and highly dependent on the type, severity, and appearance of the defect. Resin infiltration procedure is simple and conservative, and the procedure is generally well tolerated by patients. The material was introduced in the market to treat initial interproximal carious lesions and for post-orthodontic decalcifications. It was noticed that enamel lesions treated with resin infiltration would lose their whitish appearance as the microporosities are filled with the resin. In this case report, we have demonstrated the successful use of resin infiltration (ICON® ) for masking the white color resulting from mild DDE. The pleasing aesthetic results and the conservative nature of this approach make it a good alternative to microabrasion and conventional resin restorations.
树脂浸润治疗牙釉质发育缺陷3例报告
永久门牙上的白斑或斑块在青少年中很常见;这可能会引起患者和父母对美学的关注。牙釉质发育缺陷(DDE)的治疗具有挑战性,高度依赖于缺陷的类型、严重程度和外观。树脂浸润术简单保守,患者一般耐受良好。该材料被引入市场,用于治疗最初的近端间龋齿病变和正畸后脱钙。我们注意到树脂浸润处理的牙釉质病变会随着微孔被树脂填充而失去白色外观。在本病例报告中,我们成功地展示了树脂渗透(ICON®)的使用,以掩盖由轻度DDE引起的白色。这种方法的美观性和保守性使其成为微磨损和传统树脂修复的良好替代品。
