Branch: Restorative-Conservative Dentistry

Brand: SHOFU composite

Material: Shofu Beautifil

Technique: Anterior Composite Restorations, Anterior direct restoration

Clinical Case: Anterior smile rehabilitation following severe cervical and interproximal caries. Under optimal rubber dam isolation, the decay was removed and interdental matrices were adapted. A meticulous composite layering technique was used to rebuild the proximal walls and restore natural anatomy. The final post-operative result shows a seamless, highly aesthetic, and polished finish.
