Br Dent J. 2020 Dec;229(12):774-778. doi: 10.1038/s41415-020-2405-x. Epub 2020 Dec 18.

Abstract

This case report describes the conservative management of generalised tetracycline stains by means of the injectable composite resin technique. This time-efficient technique obtained optimal and satisfactory aesthetic outcomes. Both the patient and the clinician were very satisfied with the results. Composite veneers realised with injected flowable resin composites are an effective treatment, with minimally invasive possibilities, providing the case selection protocol is correct. In addition, it can be considered as a more economical treatment option.
