Description

Abstract: Aesthetics are often a major concern for young patients with anterior tooth involvement. Patients typically seek dental care to improve their smiles due to irregularities in the enamel and superficial stains. These stains or anomalies in dental hard tissue can be caused by fluorosis, mineralized white patches, hypoplasia, and amelogenesis imperfecta. Different treatment modalities are used to treat these staining of teeth. In the present case report dental fluorosis is treated with MDC Antivet Bleaching agent in anterior teeth and stainless-steel crowns in all four permanent molars in a thirteen-year-old child. The minimal invasive technique was used for bleaching anterior teeth and molars were preserved with full coverage stainless steel crowns. The appearance of the treated enamel showed a surface almost completely free of fluorotic stains, demonstrating the satisfactory results of this treatment.
