Color changes with restorations

Lecture Description: 

In Esthetic Restorative Dentistry the goal is to achieve the appearance that the patient desires in terms of morphology, texture and, moreover, the color. An important point is the possible modification in terms of color that we can achieve with different types of materials considering the final goal and the initial situation and using techniques and approaches that can be selected considering many indications.

This type of changing color can be obtained with whitening protocols with direct composite restorations or indirect restorations like ceramic veneers or full crowns. 

In this lecture we will cover this topic and we will propose different protocols for excellence in order to give to the patient the best result having different strategies in our hands.

Objective: 
  • Protocols for color change with direct composite restorations
