Pediatric esthetic dentistry is a sensitive technique, as children can be less cooperative; hence, minimal appointments are preferred. The most conservative treatment modality for anterior esthetic rehabilitation is using direct composite veneer restorations. In many instances, esthetic improvements using composite resin are the only possible option until the growth phase of the pediatric patient is complete. In this article, we present three different case scenarios in young teenagers with different treatment needs requiring esthetic restorations. The first case report is a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta, the second is with generalized spacing, and the third is with localized microdontia. All three patients were followed up for six months post direct composite veneering and were highly satisfied with their treatment outcomes, which boosted their self-confidence.
儿童美容牙科是一项需要谨慎操作的技术,因为儿童可能不太配合;因此,尽量减少就诊次数是比较好的做法。前牙美容修复最保守的治疗方式是使用直接复合树脂贴面修复。在许多情况下,在儿童患者生长发育阶段结束之前,使用复合树脂进行美学改善是唯一可行的选择。在本文中,我们介绍了三名不同治疗需求的青少年患者的不同病例情况,他们都需要进行美学修复。第一例病例报告是一名患有牙釉质发育不全的患者,第二例是患有广泛性牙间隙的患者,第三例是患有局部过小牙的患者。所有三名患者在直接复合树脂贴面修复后均随访了六个月,他们对治疗效果非常满意,这增强了他们的自信心。
