Resumen

LAMAS-LARA, César; ALVARADO-MENACHO, Sergio  y  ANGULO DE LA VEGA, Giselle. Importance of finishing and polishing direct restorations of resin composite in anterior teeth: Case Report. Rev. Estomatol. Herediana [online]. 2015, vol.25, n.2, pp.145-151. ISSN 1019-4355.

Direct composite resin restorations performed in our patients require much expertise by the operator and in many cases we comply with the required adhesive protocols and the correct inclusion of the material in the preparation, but after the restorative process we dedicate very little time to the finishing touch and polish this being a fundamental step for success. Many fail to obtain satisfactory results by using a system of finishing and polishing because we don’t use it properly, do not know how long the process takes, or which is the correct sequence or insulation to use. This article details the resolution of a clinical case through a method of finishing and polishing of restorations on direct composite resin in the anterior teeth. The results obtained were satisfactory since they failed to improve restorations returning natural, aesthetic and lost function preserving the vitality pulp through conservative protocols. We conclude that the process of finishing and polishing our composite resin restorations was crucial to ensure the success of our treatments, but we must know perfectly and adequately the system used so as not to injure the dental pulp and thus not jeopardize its vitality.
