title: Reconstruction of severely damaged endodontically treated and bleached teeth using a microhybrid composite resin: two-year case report.
abstract: Clinical indications for direct composite restorations have expanded in the last decade, primarily due to improved physical, aesthetic, and handling properties. As a consequence, their increased predictability has encouraged clinicians to progressively abandon amalgam. This article presents a clinical protocol to reconstruct severely damaged endodontically treated and bleached anterior teeth with particular emphasis on placement and curing techniques. Common complications encountered during the bonding of teeth that have undergone endodontic and bleaching treatments are also analyzed.
