Aim:
Therefore, this case report aimed to describe the clinical case of a 28-year-old female patient under routine consultation, in which a radiographic examination showed the presence of two incipient caries lesions in the left upper premolars.Methods:
The application of a resin infiltrating agent (Icon®, DMG Hamburg, Germany) was chosen as treatment to stop caries lesions progression.Conclusion:
The use of this conservative technique can be considered a promising approach for the prevention of dental tissue wear, and the resin infiltrant is considered an effectivematerial:
