Comentários

  • This female patient presented with defective #11 #21 composite resin restorations and discolored #41 after root canal treatment.
  • iTero 5D with NIRI function can detect early decalcification lesions and also highlight discoloration in the tooth in high contrast. This helped in patient communication and treatment planning.
  • #11 #21 #41 veneers were planned to restore t the tooth morphology and mask the discoloration.

    Satisfactory results were achieved.
