Abstract

SANTOS, Fernanda Malheiro; CERQUEIRA, Daniella Ferraz  and  IMPARATO, José Carlos Pettorossi. Injury approach to tooth cavity in proximate previous deciduoud teeth by abrasion technique: case report. Stomatos [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.31, pp. 37-44. ISSN 1519-4442.

The treatment for tooth cavity in proximate surfaces from previous deciduous teeth is normally of a difficult performance and the sucess of such method is related to the difficulty in the preparation of this procedure, the choice of color in the restoration material and the technique itself to restore the cavity. The present case study talks about an aternative approach with the abrasion of the affected surface by means of polisher strings. It is possible to conclude that the present propose is an efficient alternative to halt proximate tooth cavities.

Keywords : Tooth cavity; Abrasion; Deciduous teeth.
