Case Study: Composite Fillings

This patient experienced a dental injury during a frisbee accident, which resulted in damage to their teeth. After an initial examination, a local anaesthetic was administered to ensure comfort, and the teeth were thoroughly cleaned in preparation for restoration. The goal was to return the teeth to their original appearance.

Treatment undertaken:

Using a selfie taken before the accident as a visual reference, the dentist meticulously rebuilt the damaged teeth with composite fillings. This material was chosen for its ability to closely match the natural tooth’s colour and texture. By carefully shaping the composite, the teeth were restored to their original form, giving the patient back their natural smile. The use of the selfie provided an accurate guide, ensuring the teeth were as close as possible to their pre-accident state.
