Better adjacency is of significant importance to the function of teeth. The disruption of teeth adjacency would cause food impaction, dental caries and periodontal problems. Many cases, adjacent alveolar bone absorption result in food level impaction. Long-time food accumulation in gingival triangle zone can lead to teeth defect below the adjacent gingival. The bottom of the defect is difficult to see clearly, bringing great trouble of application of matrix system. Unreasonable placement of matrix piece will prone to appear resin overhanging, pressing the gingival. Hence, we summarized a modified "re-bending of Dentsply matrix piece pushing gingival"; method to restore teeth defect below the adjacent gingival efficiently.
Better contact relationship of teeth is crucial to the teeth function. The purpose of resin restoration is to re-form the adjacency of the teeth and to ensure no marginal overhang existence [1,2]. Often, the adjacent alveolar bone absorption will cause horizontal food disease below the adjacent gingival [3,4]. The big problem is that we are difficult to see clearly the bottom of defect.
Rubber dam is the important tool to restore the teeth defect. However, there will be a limited population featured as restricted mouth opening, allergic to rubber dam and intolerance to long-time mouth opening. We couldn't apply rubber dam to these population. Hence, we create a modified "re-bending of Dentsply matrix piece pushing gingival" method to restore the defect more quickly. We rebend the Dentsply matrix piece based on the shape of the defect area. Next, we apply the Dentsply matrix system to push the gingival to the subgingival defect section (Figures 1-3).
Repairing the subgingival teeth defect is a very difficult affair This reformative method combined with Dentsply matrix system could assist doctors to restore the complicate caries relatively more easily. It could repair the subgingival tooth defect of special population better and faster.
We express our great gratitude to Jianhua Wei for his help.
