White spot lesions (WSLs) are common post-orthodontic
complications that could be attributed to the lack of oral hygiene with fixed
orthodontic appliances. Resin infiltration (RI) technique is an increasingly popular,
minimally invasive restorative treatment option that involves penetration of a
resin into the body of the WSLs. In this case report, the clinical application
method, difficulties during application and long-term evidences of RI technique
were described. Sixteen-years-old girl referred to our clinic with WSLs on her
maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth following orthodontic treatment.
Lesions were treated with RI technique (Icon, DMG) in two sessions. The results
of our case showed that RI was significantly improved the clinical appearance
of WSLs and generated perfect esthetic results. The clinical appearances of the
teeth were stable over the twenty four-month period and progression of the
lesions was inhibited.

Ortodontik tedavi sonrası oluşan beyaz nokta lezyonlarının rezin infiltrasyon tekniği ile tedavisi: olgu sunumu

Öz

Beyaz
nokta lezyonları, sabit ortodontik braketlerin kullanımı sırasında yetersiz
oral hijyen nedeniyle sık görülen önemli bir komplikasyondur. Rezin infiltrasyon
(RI) tekniği, rezin materyalin beyaz lezyonun gövdesine infiltre edilmesini
sağlayan ve klinik kullanımı yaygınlaşmakta olan bir minimal invaziv restoratif
tedavi seçeneğidir. Bu olgu sunumunda, RI tekniğinin klinik uygulama yöntemi ve
uzun dönem prognozunun bildirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. On altı yaşında kız hasta,
ortodontik tedavi sonrası maksiller ve mandibular dişlerinin labial
yüzeylerinde oluşan beyaz nokta lezyonları sebebiyle kliniğimize başvurmuştur.
Beyaz lezyonlar, iki seansta RI tekniği (Icon, DMG) ile tedavi edilmiştir. Bu
olguda RI tedavisi ile beyaz lezyonların klinik görünümünde belirgin olarak düzelme
ve tatmin edici estetik sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Yirmi dört aylık dönemde bu
görünüm değişmeden stabil olarak korunmuş ve lezyonların ilerlemesi engellenmiştir.
