Abordagem minimamente invasiva para tratamento de fluorose dental com associação de técnicas

Abstract

Introduction: Dental fluorosis corresponds to a structural defect in the enamel caused by prolonged exposure to fluoride during the formation of the tooth germ. The association of minimally invasive procedures in this altered enamel has been shown to be a safe and effective treatment. Purpose: The objective of this work is to report a clinical case of fluorosis stains through the sequential demonstration of minimally invasive techniques resulting in aesthetic rehabilitation of anterior teeth. Methods: The treatment of asymmetric fluorotic stains located on the vestibular face of units 12, 13, 22 and 23 consisted of use of a bleaching gel based on hydrogen peroxide at 35% - single session-, associated with 10% carbamide peroxide - for two weeks-, followed by microabrasion with phosphoric acid and pumice. Results: The result was the white spots attenuation and esthetic smile. Conclusion: The microinvasive technique association are effective when the diagnosis is accurate.
