Importance of combined periodontal and acid-etch composite treatment in restoration of anterior teeth and periodontal health. 1979

B C Gomes, and S B Gold, and P N Baer, and S Pesta

Severely fractured, hypoplastic, and carious mandibular anterior teeth in a 17-year-old patient precluded the ability to use adequate methods of control of plaque. With simple, inexpensive techniques, periodontal health was restored and a functional and esthetic occlusion was provided. This treatment plan was accomplished with minimal risk of injuring the pulps of the teeth.
