ABSTRACT
The objective of this work is to report a restorative approach with composite resin applied in reverse in the aesthetic resolution of darkened anterior teeth. A 27-year-old female patient presented with the main complaint of dissatisfaction with the aesthetics of her smile due to dental darkening, a result of childhood trauma, without painful symptoms, pathological clinical signs or change in care. In the intraoral examination, a darkening of teeth 11 and 21 was observed, which radiographically showed thickening of the periodontal ligament, with disharmonious configuration of the marginal gingiva. From the clinical and radiographic characteristics, we opted for periodontal intervention for recovery and gingival levelling, followed by endodontic intervention and aesthetic restorative restoration. The restorative step was carried out sequentially by internal tooth bleaching, removal of dentin still pigmented after bleaching and enamel preservation. Soon after, it was restored in an alternative way and layered using a technique called reverse, using strips of polyethylene fiber over the dentin resin. The technique preserved the remaining enamel with the maintenance of the original remaining guides, proving to be a viable conservative alternative since of the diagnosis to the restorative conclusion in view of the longitudinal confirmation of the restorative efficacy after 1 year.
