Restoring a fractured incisor of a teenager with partial veneer

Abstract

Since trauma is a common incident that adolescents are faced with, the post-traumatic therapeutic solution presents a challenge for the clinicians .This case report demonstrates how a young patient with minimal extended fracture of incisor was rehabilitated with non-invasive adhesive restoration known as partial veneer or chip with Feld spathic porcelain. Those restorations fit into the anatomy and shape of the teeth perfectly and restore only the fractured part which integrates in tissue economy dynamic. Feldspathic porcelain is the material that best reproduces the characteristics of enamel, in terms of surface properties, modulus of elasticity, resistance to fracture and the reproduction of the optical properties of the dental structure, especially at minimal thickness. In this paper we describe the details of the treatment and the final result which was aesthetic and surpass the patient’s expectation.
