Clinical dentistry case: patient is bothered by tooth wear in lower incisors. The canines and the posteriors are fine but he has already got failing traditional composites. Patient is looking at a cosmetic and protective rehab.

 

This video discusses matrix transfer technique, which is a good way of treating tooth wear. It involves doing a diagnostic wax up which can be done by the lab, conventionally or digitally. Using Bioclear on lower incisors is tricky with the access and this patient has limited opening, so we went for matrix transfer technique.
