Composite Restoration
Conservative Dentistry
Treatment time: Single visit
Treating clinician: Dr Hajir Al Khazraji
Caries fully removed and tooth vitality preserved — a tooth-coloured composite restoration placed under full rubber-dam isolation.
About this case
Tooth decay does not always mean a crown. Caught in time, a tooth can be conservatively restored with tooth-coloured composite — removing only the decay and keeping the natural tooth alive and strong. This restoration was placed under full rubber-dam isolation, which keeps the tooth completely dry during bonding; isolation is one of the biggest factors in how long a filling lasts. The aim is simple: remove the disease, preserve the tooth, and make the repair invisible.
