Enhancing Aesthetics and Functionality of the Teeth Using Injectable Composite Resin Technique

In order to prepare composite restorations without the requirement for tooth preparation, the injectable composite resin technique uses a clear silicone index in a minimally invasive direct approach to imitate a diagnostic wax-up. This case report features a 34-year-old female patient having aesthetic and functional concerns, notably spacing between the teeth, insufficient tooth visibility, and diastema in the upper anterior region. Upon clinical examination, spacing and midline diastema were observed. The maxillary incisors and canines were to have composite veneers made as part of the treatment plan. A wax-up and transparent silicone index was prepared following the assessment of a try-in of the prepared mock-up. Subsequenty, for restoring the teeth, a clear silicone index was used to inject and polymerize the flowable composite. The desired outcomes included elongated teeth to enhance visibility, closure of diastemas, and reshaping of the canines. Over a 12-month follow-up period, the patient exhibited no signs of soft tissue inflammation or significant wear. The described technique is characterized by its minimal invasiveness, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for definitive and provisional restorations. Desirable results can be achieved by appropriate planning and adhering to a meticulous planning while minimizing tooth structure loss.
