Resin Infiltration: A Case of Successful Management of Mild Fluorosis
Main Article Content
Abstract
Dental fluorosis is a specific disturbance in enamel formation that leads to subsurface porosity during the late secretory and maturation phases due to excessive fluoride ingestion. The conventional management of teeth discolored by fluorosis involves performing vital tooth bleaching, microabrasion, placement of veneers or crowns, etc. The ultimate choice of treatment is based on the severity of the disease. This paper highlights a clinical case of generalized mild fluorosis treated using the resin infiltration technique, thus reviewing the mechanism of action and clinical procedure.
