SOLUÇÃO ESTÉTICA CONSERVADORA EM PACIENTE JOVEM COM FLUOROSE: CLAREAMENTO E MICROABRASÃO – RELATO DE CASO

Abstract

Introduction: fluorosis is a pathology that affects teeth triggered by excess fluoride intake. Its manifestation occurs at the enamel level in the presence of stains or anatomical defects. Objective: to report the clinical management of a patient with fluorosis treated with a minimally invasive procedure. Case report: female patient, 18 years old, presenting aesthetic complaints clinically observed in the buccal of the teeth, with a diagnosis of fluorotic lesions. A desensitization protocol was performed with Ultra EZ for 5 min and Varnish (Enamelast Fluoride) was applied prior to the bleaching treatment. Two bleaching sessions were performed with 35% hydrogen peroxide (DMC) for 45 min, with an interval of seven days between them. Immediately after the second bleaching session, microabrasion was performed with Whitness RM abrasive paste (FGM) and a rubber cup with friction for 20 seconds. Results: The bleaching treatment associated with the enamel
microabrasion technique demonstrated a favorable, microinvasive and effective esthetic result in the treatment of fluorosis. Conclusion: the combination of treatments solved the patient’s aesthetic problem quickly and safely, preserving the dental structure.
