Conservative Management Of Endodontically Treated Mandibular Molar By Indirect Composite: A Novel Approach.

Introduction: The patient’s desire for esthetics, coupled with the decreasing use of amalgam, requires that clinicians be comfortable and proficient in the use and placement of tooth-colored restoratives.Case Report: A 30 yrs old male came with chief complaint of large metallic filling on lower left back region came to the department for esthetic restoration. Patient had dental history of endodontic treatment with 36,37,46,47 and periodontal surgery with 46,47. Patient was advised by endodontic department for proper restoration of endodontically treated teeth to avoid fracture of treated tooth.Discussion: Indirect composite restorations demonstrate enhanced physical properties and predictable clinical performance having less polymerization shrinkage than direct composites. There is more strength in highly filled indirect composite. One of the most important attributes of indirect composite is the ability to create ideal contours and contacts with adjacent and opposing teeth that might be difficult to achieve clinically with large, directly placed composite restorations.

Reestablishing Esthetics With Extracted Teeth On A Mandibular Anterior Edentulous Area A Case Report.

Introduction: There is always a great anxiety in many patients when aesthetic impairment is involved after the removal of teeth, and this anxiety tends to be more significant. Immediate dentures for many years were considered to be a resorption-increasing factor. Well-fitting immediate dentures act as a bandage isolating the healing tissues from thermal and chemical damage and preventing food from entering the sockets. Case Report: A female patient of age 43 years treated with immediate partial denture with extracted lower incisors as a replacement with self cure acrylic denture base. Discussion: Within the past decade, as aesthetics have received more emphasis with treatment planning, resorption of the alveolar ridge following tooth extraction, especially in the anterior region has become a significant problem. There is a huge advantage of using the extracted teeth as a replacement as one of the strong indication for immediate is aesthetics. Conclusion: Immediate removable partial denture not only increases the aesthetic value, but also therapeutic purposes. For anterior region, where aesthetics is major concern, extracted teeth itself can be much helpful, which can provide excellent aesthetics.
