Ortodontik tedavi sonrası oluşan beyaz nokta lezyonların tedavisi: Olgu sunumu

Ortodontik tedaviler bireye estetik ve fonksiyonel açıdan yarar sağlarken, bant ve braketler etrafına süt beyazı, opak bir yapı olarak kendini gösteren mine demineralizasyonu oluşabilmektedir. Bu durum arzu edilmeyen bir komplikasyondur. Beyaz nokta lezyonları BNL olarak adlandırılan bu demineralizasyoların doğru teşhisi ve uygun yöntemle tedavisi son derece önemlidir. DMG firmasının üretmiş olduğu Icon isimli rezin infiltrant, oldukça non-invaziv olup; söz konusu lezyonların tedavisinde güncel olarak kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Bu madde, diş minesine yakın kırılma indeksine K.İ: 1.46 sahip olmakla beraber; çürük içine infiltre olarak BNL’e ait opakgörünümü ortadan kaldırabilmektedir.Bu vaka raporunda, ortodontik tedavi esnasında meydana gelen BNL’lerin tedavisinde yeni ve non invaziv bir yak

Case Report: Treatment of Post-Orthodontic White Spot Lesions

Besides aesthetic and functional benefits to the patient; orthodontic treatment may cause demineralised, opaque white spot lesions around bands and brackets. This situation is an unwanted complication. A proper diagnosis must be made in order to provide good treatment plan for white spot lesions WSL .A product of DMG called ‘Icon’ is a new minimally invasive technique for treating WSLs by caries infiltration. Having a refractive index of 1.46, Icon light cure resin can mask the white opaque appearance of the WSL by infiltrating into the affected enamel. This case report describes a microinvasive technique used to treat smooth surface white spot lesions by infiltration of initial enamel caries lesion with lowviscosity light curing resin called infiltrant, Icon
