Popis: |
Hypoplasia is an enamel developmental defect characterized by a quantitative disturbance in the formation of mineralized tissue. Among its etiologic factors are local and systemic causes, trauma and dental infections being the most common. This case report presents the functional and esthetic rehabilitation of a 12-year-old boy diagnosed with hypoplasia in the maxillary central incisors. His chief complaints were the unesthetic appearance and sensitivity of the affected teeth. The teeth were restored with composite resin placed with the aid of a direct silicone palatal guide, and the patient was followed up for 12 months. The treatment plan allowed the restoration and improvement of function and esthetics, resulting in patient satisfaction. |
