BACCHI, Ataís; CAVALCANTE, Larissa Maria Assad; SCHNEIDER, Luis Felipe Jochims  e  CONSANI, Rafael Leonardo Xediek. Repairs in composite resin restorations: a literature review. RFO UPF [online]. 2010, vol.15, n.3, pp. 331-335. ISSN 1413-4012.

OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to present the findings in the literature with respect to indications of repair, seeking to educate the professional not to replace some restorations unnecessarily, discuss the materials to be used and technique, in order to clarify and guide the clinician in daily practice, to perform their work in a methodically and successful. REVIEW OF LITERATURE: Even though the clinician develop a thorough job and take due care when performing a restore, they do not last a lifetime, or even fail in a short period of time, frustrating some expectations of their patients. Leakage, recurrent caries, wear or fracture of the restoration and eventual fracture of the dental element are some reasons that lead to failure of the restoration. Faced of that situations, some professionals, either by choice or lack of information, replace the entire restoration, oftentimes causing injury and unnecessary aggression that dental element. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: The advancement of the adhesive dentistry offers the possibility of a largely conservative restorative treatment, without the need for total removal of some restorations. Thus, the repair can be used preserving the remaining tooth structure.
