An indirect tooth-coloured restoration involving one surfaceis necessary to repair minor cavities or chips while maintaining aesthetics. This procedure is particularly useful for patients with small areas of decay or trauma that do not compromise the overall structure of the tooth. For example, a patient with a small cavity on the occlusal surface may require this type of restoration.
The primary benefit of this procedure is its ability to restore the tooth's appearance and function, preserving its natural structure. By addressing minor cavities or chips, clinicians can provide patients with a natural-looking, aesthetically pleasing result. This level of intervention improves the likelihood of successful outcomes, particularly in cases of cosmetic concerns.
For oral and maxillofacial surgeons, indirect tooth-coloured restorations involving one surface require ensuring proper bonding and shade matching for optimal aesthetics. Surgeons should evaluate the patient’s occlusion and ensure that the restoration is properly shaped and polished to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. By incorporating this procedure into the treatment plan, surgeons can ensure better outcomes for the patient.
