Clinical Case: Successful Caries Restoration Thanks to Kiyomi Products
Dr. Gerardo Rodríguez, from the Kane Dental Clinic, presents a clinical case of caries restoration in a 26-year-old patient. This case highlights the use of high-quality materials, particularly our K-Bond+ Universal adhesive system and Aster composite from Kiyomi Dental.
The patient and the problem
Our 26-year-old patient presented with a carious lesion on the occlusal surface of tooth 3.6. Dental caries is a common issue, but with proper care, the function and aesthetics of the affected teeth can be restored.
The caries restoration process
PREPARATION
First, the carious tissue was removed from the affected area. This is essential to stop the progression of the decay and prepare the surface for restoration.
- Application of phosphoric acid: Next, phosphoric acid was selectively applied only to the enamel surface. This was followed by careful rinsing and drying.
- Adhesion: The K-Bond universal adhesive was then applied, ensuring a strong bond between the tooth and the composite.
- Composite placement
Incremental layers of 1.5 mm of Aster composite from Kiyomi Dental were applied. This step is crucial to achieve a durable and aesthetically pleasing restoration. - Occlusal adjustment
Dr. Rodríguez ensured proper occlusion, allowing the patient to bite and chew comfortably. - Finishing and polishing
Finally, the restoration was finished and polished. This is essential for the restoration to look and feel like a natural tooth. - Final light curing
The final layer was light-cured in an oxygen-free environment to eliminate any superficial inhibited layer of the material, ensuring an optimal restoration.
The result of this clinical case is a successful dental restoration that not only restores function to the affected tooth but also enhances the aesthetics of the patient’s smile.
Conclusion
The choice of high-quality products, such as the K-Bond+ Universal adhesive system and Aster composite, was essential to achieve a durable and aesthetically pleasing result.
