Restoration of molars affected by molar-incisor hypomineralization using the occlusal replica technique

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to report the clinical case of an 8-year-old male patient seen at the Pediatric Dentistry outpatient clinic at the Universidade Federal do Paraná, Brazil, diagnosed with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) after presenting with pain in teeth 16, 36, and 46, whic...

description ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to report the clinical case of an 8-year-old male patient seen at the Pediatric Dentistry outpatient clinic at the Universidade Federal do Paraná, Brazil, diagnosed with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) after presenting with pain in teeth 16, 36, and 46, which had extensive atypical cavities and opacities on the adjacent enamel. A diagnostic wax-up of affected teeth was performed for manufacture of silicone occlusal matrix. Encapsulated high-viscosity glass ionomer cement was handled and inserted into the occlusal matrix which was fitted onto the teeth by slight finger pressure. After setting time, excess of material was removed, and occlusion was checked. A flowable resin coating material was applied, and the restorations were finished. Six months later, the restorations performed for treatment of the severe MIH lesions proved to be efficient, lowering the sensitivity reported by the patient, reshaping the teeth, improving their function, and refining dental esthetics.
