Enamel defects, such as white or yellow-brown spots, usually cause problems that are more
esthetic than functional. Enamel hypoplasia may be the result of hereditary, systemic, or
local factors. Dental trauma is a local etiologic factor. It is relatively common in the primary
dentition and can cause defects on the surface of permanent successors. Treatment for such
defects can differ, depending on the depth of the spots. For deeper white-spot lesions, a
composite resin restoration may be necessary. This is an excellent mode of treatment, due to …
Enamel defects, such as white or yellow-brown spots, usually cause problems that are more esthetic than functional. Enamel hypoplasia may be the result of hereditary, systemic, or local factors. Dental trauma is a local etiologic factor. It is relatively common in the primary dentition and can cause defects on the surface of permanent successors. Treatment for such defects can differ, depending on the depth of the spots. For deeper white-spot lesions, a composite resin restoration may be necessary. This is an excellent mode of treatment, due to both its low cost and its conservation of healthy tooth structure. The objective of this case report is to describe composite resin restoration of a maxillary central incisor affected by enamel hypoplasia.
