TRETMANT OF ANTERIOR ENAMEL HYPOPLASIA WITH COMPOSITE RESTORATION: TWO CASE REPORT

Aim: the defects that ocur at the anterior tooth can cause aestetic problems. one of these defects is enamel hypoplasia. enamel hypoplasia is characterized by the development of less than normal amount of enamel. the defect can ocur on any tooth or multiple teeth and can be seen from a small pir or hollow to a large lesion that had been penetrated into the teeth. environmental and genetic factors ocur that lesions. this includes trauma to the teeth and jaws, intubation of premature infants, infections during pregnancy or infancy and hereditary disorders. at the treatment of enamel hypoplasia, from simple to complex desensitizing agent, tooth colored restorative materials, laminate veneer restorations and all ceramic restorations can be used. because of aesthetic problems, sensitizing problem and decay risc, such cases must be urgently treatment. case report: in these two cases, enamel hypoplasia was observed at two patients that presented to our clinic. after treatment options explained to patients, advantage of aesthetic, simply use and short treatment time, direct composite resin restoration application was decided to both patients. the enamel that affected from enamel hypoplasia was carefully removed. after the application of clearfil s3 (kuraray, japan) adhesive, ceram x (dentsply, detrey, konstanz, germany) composite resin was applied with the incremental method and then polymerized. at last polishing was done and the restoration was completed. result: as a result of direct composite resin application, reached an acceptable aesthetic. after complate the treatment, the patients control was done.
