Tooth wear can have a multifactorial aetiology which requires thorough patient assessment and aesthetic management.
This case report discusses the management of a young, Egyptian swimmer complaining of tooth sensitivity associated with erosive tooth wear. Anterior teeth were restored using the injection molding technique, also known as the injectable composite resin technique, to overcome the patient's complaint and enhance the aesthetics of compromised anterior teeth.
Thorough patient assessment was followed by impression taking, a diagnostic wax-up and intraoral mock-up fabrication for aesthetic, functional and biological verification. Upon the patient's agreement on the proposed treatment, an injection molding technique was carried out.
The tooth loss pattern associated with erosive tooth wear in competitive swimmers showed a very characteristic presentation. Detailed patient history is imperative for successful assessment of the risk factors contributing to the condition and treatment planning in such cases. The use of injection molding technique for restoration of anterior teeth is a simple, straightforward and aesthetically pleasing alternative for patients with erosive tooth wear requiring direct composite veneers.
牙齿磨损可能有多种病因，这需要对患者进行全面评估和美学管理。
本病例报告讨论了一名年轻埃及游泳运动员牙齿敏感且伴有侵蚀性牙齿磨损的治疗情况。采用注射成型技术（也称为可注射复合树脂技术）修复前牙，以解决患者的主诉并改善受损前牙的美观。
对患者进行全面评估后，取印模、制作诊断蜡型并制作口内模型，以进行美学、功能和生物学验证。在患者同意所提议的治疗方案后，实施注射成型技术。
竞技游泳运动员中与侵蚀性牙齿磨损相关的牙齿缺失模式呈现出非常典型的表现。详细的患者病史对于成功评估导致该病症的风险因素以及此类病例的治疗计划至关重要。对于需要直接复合贴面的侵蚀性牙齿磨损患者，使用注射成型技术修复前牙是一种简单、直接且美观的选择。
