RESUMO
Enamel microabrasion may be indicated for certain clinical situations, since it is a proven method for removing superficial intrinsic enamel discoloration defects such as fluorosis-like stains; in addition, it is safe, conservative, and easy to perform. However, this method removes enamel structure, causing teeth to become yellowish. This yellowing can be treated with enamel microabrasion and bleaching. This article describes and documents how these two methods were utilized to correct tooth color for a young patient.
