The small details that change a smile
Restoring tooth anatomy with composite material


Direct composite restorations are a modern method of restoring teeth that have lost hard tissue, and they allow as much healthy tooth structure as possible to be preserved.
In this clinical case, a direct adhesive approach was used to restore the damaged tooth anatomy.
The composite material was chosen to match the natural colour of the tooth. The modelling paid attention to the anatomical contours, the contact surfaces and the functional relationships.
Once the restoration was complete, the tooth had a natural shape and the composite material blended harmoniously with the surrounding tooth tissue.
