Use of fluid composite materials in dental restorations, frontal teeth

Abstract

Introduction. Flowable resin composites were developed and introduced to the world as a revolutionary restorative biomaterial in 1996. These first-generation flowable formulations were designed to simplify the placement technique and to expand the range of clinical applications for resin composites. These biomaterials were marketed by manufacturers for a wide range of applications, which included all classifications of anterior and posterior composite restorations, block-out materials, composite repair, core buildup, crown margin repair, cavity liners, pit and fissure sealants, anterior incisal edge repair, preventive resin restorations, provisional repair, tunnel preparation restorations, adhesive cementation, restoring enamel defects, air abrasion cavity preparations, and void repairs in conventional resin composite restorations. Aim of the study. Comparative study of adheration to hard dental tissues of fluid composite materials by dental recontouring microscopy in areas of dental tissue-composite interaction Materials and methods.. A clinical study has been performed in three patients with different clinical diagnosis: abrasion, dental crown fracture, restoring enamel defects. These patients were treated using standard treatment and using fluid composite materials.Results. The obtained results allowed us to systematize data regarding the particularities of the direct aesthetic restorations, their harmonious integration into the entire dento-maxillary system, as well as a faithful imitation of the natural aspect Conclusions. In conclusion we can say that fluid composite materials have a good thermal insulation, low level of wear and handling, easy application and restore the natural appearance of the tooth. In designing and achieving a treatment plan, compliance with aesthetic criteria plays an important role in achieving the best and lasting outcome.
