Abstract

ABSTRACT 

In todays’ modern dentistry, the undesirable
appea- rence of dental fluorosis need to be improved to satisfy patients’ esthetic
requirements in a minimally invasive manner. The approach proposed for the
treatment should remove the stained enamel defects, provide blending effect for
chalky white appearence and strengthen the enamel against caries develop- ment.
The purpose of this case report is to present the clinical results of a
combined esthetic treatment of a severe fluorosis case with microabrasion,
bleaching and resin infiltration.

Treatment plan was based on a combined approach
of microabrasion, home bleaching and resin infiltration. 

An improvement in the esthetic appearence was
achi- eved and remained stable in the 6-months follow-up.

The technique might be more minimally invasive,
less time consuming and cheaper compared to restorative techniques.

Key Words: dental fluorosis, microabrasion, home
bleaching, resin infiltration 

ŞİDDETLİ DENTAL FLOROZİSİN KOMBİNE ESTETİK ESTETİK TEDAVİSİ: BİR OLGU
SUNUMU

Günümüz
modern diş hekimliğinde, hastaların estetik beklentilerini arttırmak için
dental florozisin istenmeyen görüntüsünün minimal invaziv yaklaşımla
iyileştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Tedavi için önerilen yaklaşım, renklenmiş mine
defektlerini uzaklaştırmalı, beyaz tebeşirimsi görüntü için renk eşitleyci etki
sağlamalı ve mineyi çürük gelişimine karşı güçlendirmelidir. Bu vaka raporunun
amacı, şiddetli dental florozisin mikroabrazyon, beyazlatma ve rezin
infiltrasyonu ile kombine estetik tedavisinin klinik sonuçlarını sunmaktır.

Tedavi
planı, mikroabrazyon, ev tipi beyazlatma ve rezin infiltrasyonun kombine
edildiği bir yaklaşıma dayanmaktadır. Estetik görüntüde bir iyileşme
sağlanabilmiş ve 6 aylık takip süresince stabil kalmıştır. Restoratif teknikler
ile karşılaştırıldığında, teknik daha minimal invaziv, daha az zaman gerektiren
ve daha ucuz olabilir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Dental florozis,
