Fillings
Resin Composite
In those earlier years of my practice, adhesive direct composite dentistry began to emerge, offering materials and techniques that minimized tooth structure removal while blending tooth-mimicking materials exhibiting physical and optical properties more like the missing tooth structure being replaced. This offered a quantum leap of available options to solve patient aesthetic dilemmas, particularly as more durable bonding adhesives were manufactured along with composites that were stronger and more easily polished. Nanohybrids are the latest generation of composite resins to be introduced. These materials have formulations which incorporate nano-sized glass particle fillers that maximize polishability and long-term surface luster, with larger particles to resist fracture.
Crowns
My journey into what later became a minimally invasive trend in dentistry began shortly after my graduation from dental school. At that time, porcelain jacket and porcelain-to-metal restorations were the primary solutions available to aesthetically reconstruct teeth seriously damaged by decay or injury. This created a real dilemma, considering that the preparations were necessarily aggressive to accommodate the restorative technique, and the results were often less than desirable aesthetically by today’s standards. PFM crowns were often chosen when optimal restoration strength was required, and these restorations, in order to properly mimic natural teeth, often presented a considerable artistic challenge for the dental ceramist.
Bridges
Sometimes patients have porcelain crowns and bridges that may fracture due to trauma. Often the crown or bridge is still functioning to protect the tooth and can be salvaged without being replaced with an adhesive composite restoration that replaces what has fractured away. Below is a case where the patient had trauma to the mouth that broke the porcelain off their bridge. The decision was made to repair rather than replace the bridge. Below are the before and after treatment photos

Root Canal Treatment
Many patients, especially children, have accidents that may break the front teeth. The patient whose teeth are shown below had a bicycle accident that broke off half of a front tooth. The nerve of the tooth was exposed. Many times when this happens a procedure called a root canal is done to remove the nerve from the inside of the tooth if it is irreparably damaged. In this case fortunately the nerve was able to recover and a root canal was not necessary. A bonded composite restoration was done in one visit adding back tooth that was missing while removing little or no additional tooth. Below are the before and after treatment pictures.

Orthodontics
Braces
Often patients have their teeth properly aligned and fitted with orthodontic braces. For some the shapes and sizes of the teeth can be irregular and even though the orthodontist has done a wonderful job correcting the crooked, crowded teeth there remains an esthetic dilemma that braces cannot correct. Sometimes after braces sculpting the teeth with cosmetic restorations can create dramatic finishing touches.
