Abstract
Esthetics is the major concern among patients seeking dental treatment which can be hindered by discrepancies in the anterior teeth like presence of spacing and disturbances in tooth morphology. In cases where multiple spacing of anterior teeth are present, injection technique using composite can be replacement for the direct restoration technique due to its non – invasive, cost effective nature. This case report depicts the case of anterior tooth recontouring after an orthodontic treatment managed with composite injection technique using preheated universal composite and digital workflow. This technique results in marginal precision improvement and superior esthetics when planned and executed appropriately.
