🦷 Case: Faulty Restoration in Mandibular First Molar
This patient came with an old filling that had:
✔️ Discoloration
✔️ Marginal leakage
✔️ Secondary caries underneath
We used a caries disclosing dye to identify the infected area and carefully removed only the diseased dentin, preserving maximum natural tooth structure.
✨ The tooth was then restored using biomimetic principles – restoring the tooth in a way that mimics nature, both functionally and aesthetically.
Why Biomimetic Restoration?
🔹 Conserves healthy tooth
🔹 Reduces chances of future fracture
🔹 Provides long-lasting bond
🔹 Looks and feels natural
💡 Strong. Conservative. Natural-looking.
