caso clínico
The patient, a 46 years old woman came to our attention to improve her aesthetics.
A first analysis revealed a combined abrasive-erosive action on both incisors 11 and 21.
We decided to proceed with a direct composite restoration, a single layer, fully adhesive and additive technique without any preparation, only sandblasting.
The following clinical case shows the step-by-step direct composite veneers restoration using the Unica anterior matrix from Polydentia.

1: Pre-operative view showing a combined abrasive-erosive action on both 11 an 21.

2: Unica anterior matrix placed on the tooth. The contoured proximal walls of the matrix carefully embrace the tooth reproducing the anatomy required for the restorations in the anterior region.

3: Unica anterior matrix was fixed using wooden wedges and the tooth surfaces sandblasted.

4: Adhesive procedure: a universal system adhesive with a selective etching approach was used to increase the bonding forces in the enamel.

5: A single-layer of composite was placed and smoothed with paintbrushes and spatulas.

6: The composite was than cured, UNICA anterior and wedges removed, and the veneers finished and polished using abrasive discs and burst. The image shows the final results of the restoration.
conclusión
One of the most challenging and time-consuming aspect when performing anterior restorations is the correct reproduction of both cervical and interproximal margins.
The contoured shape of the Unica anterior matrix allows to proceed simultaneously to the reconstruction of both cervical and interproximal margins with a significant advantage in terms of shape management and predictability of the restoration.
