Case 182: replacing old composite resin filling on labial site of maxillary left central incisor (endodontist – spesialis konservasi gigi)

Assalamualaikum Wr Wb.. Good Morning!!

welcome back to SekilasKonservasiGigi.Com, a full story of my mini series updated from my social media such as instagramfacebookgoogle plus, and also twitter. Sometimes, I also updated my cases at Linkedin. 🙂 this topic will focus only on conservative dentistry cases such as restorative dentistry and endodontic or root canal treatment.


replacing old composite resin filling on labial site of maxillary left central incisor


a patient came with a chief complain on his upper left central incisor with big discoloration. asked for veneers, but i offered more conservative approach rather than placing veneers. after taking a proper informed consent, i started my dental treatment as seen on this video below.

this old-leaked composite resin on buccal had been there for more than 2 years. i had no idea on the previous situation why it is exist like that. at first, i put rubberdam, here i used nictone bluedam sheet to cover isolation from premolar to premolar. it gave me a broad working field.

after doing cavity preparation, i refined the cavity with diamond-coated ultrasonic tip (excavus tip from satelec). the filling was done in single shade only, thanks to the “cloud color” from Ceram-X Spheretec one from DentsplySirona that can mimic the natural color of tooth structure.

finishing and polishing were done with soflex (3M) and enhance (dentsplysirona). final result showed a predictable shading and contouring.

hope this dental treatment will be long last 🙂
