ABSTRACT
The concept of minimally invasive dentistry is based on preserving tooth structure, especially enamel. A conservative method to treat discolored teeth that have diastemas is a freehand additive technique using composite resin. While selecting the correct shade of resin can be challenging, newer composite resin formulations are being developed with optical properties that enable the material to more effectively blend into the dentition. This case report describes the use of conservative approaches and materials to treat discolored, unevenly spaced teeth and restore harmony and balance to a patient's smile.
