Direct restoration with monochromatic composite resin is a treatment option for teeth with coronal fracture after dentoalveolar trauma. This restorative material, in principle, is capable of mimicking the color of the dental substrate. This study aimed to report and discuss the technique of direct restoration with monochromatic composite resin, in a child patient. An 8-year-old male patient attended the Emergency Room of the Baby Clinic of the State University of Londrina for immediate treatment after dentoalveolar trauma that resulted in enamel and dentin fracture, without pulp involvement. As a procedure, restoration was performed with glass ionomer cement and referral to the institution's Dental Residency program. In this service, after case planning, the restoration of the coronal fracture of the substrates was performed with the insertion of multiple increments of the Vittra APS Unique (FGM) composite, with the aid of a silicone guide prepared based on a waxing model to facilitate the reestablishment of the palatal surface form and anatomy. In the clinical follow-up evaluation, the aesthetic and functional results obtained were considered highly satisfactory by patients, relatives and dental clinicians. Thus, it can be concluded that the option for monochromatic composite resin is a viable alternative to make it easier for the dental clinicians to perform the procedure and reduce the clinical time, a relevant fact because it is a case of caring for a pediatric dentistry patient. |
