| Sumario: | Dental fluorosis is an irreversible alternation of the
tooth structure, characterized by areas with hypomineralization,
as a result of the excessive intake of
fluoride during the odontogeny. In the department of
Lavalle, Mendoza (Argentina), fluoride concentration
in domestic water is higher than it should. There are
several methods for classifying the severity of dental
fluorosis. Actually, different clinical techniques
can be chosen; however, the correct choice of the
treatment depends mainly on the suitable assessment
of the severity of the pathology. For a clinical case
about a patient with severe fluorosis background,
it was chosen, as an alternative of the treatment, a
technique of direct restauration with composite resin |
