“…These cheap and efficient crown formers can be utilized in pediatric dentistry, where they have been found to have a success rate of over 80%, but they can also be used, when necessary, in permanent dentition for patients of all ages. Many of the pre-formed sizes are substantially larger than the normal primary incisor and more closely resemble the size of the permanent dentition [ 25 ]. When tooth tissue has been lost from many surfaces, generally as a result of cavities or trauma, they are traditionally used for primary full coronal restorations.…”

In the field of restorative dentistry, composite resins have emerged as the most utilized materials. They revolutionized the cosmetic approach to anterior tooth treatment since their introduction to dental practice. In cases where one or more of the tooth's walls are absent, matrices are employed to assist in the creation of the proper anatomic contour and proximal contacts without the occurrence of gingival overhangs. Matrices come in a variety of designs suitable for various therapeutic conditions. Depending on the level of tooth destruction, they might range from a simple metal or plastic strip to a circumferential ring of metal surrounding the entire crown. Although the handling characteristics of modern composites have significantly improved, dentists still encounter challenges with the development of good interproximal contact and proper anatomical contour. The utilization of an anterior matrix system can be paramount in achieving these objectives.

Advancements in material science have contributed greatly towards aesthetic dentistry. However, achieving satisfactory aesthetics for children in the developing dentition poses unique challenges. Challenges include, but are not limited to: (1) patient co-operation; (2) optimum moisture control; (3) continuing gingival maturation and bone growth; and (4) the increased need for minimally invasive and non-irreversible techniques to maintain future treatment options. This article addresses the common paediatric dental aesthetic challenges of uncomplicated crown fractures (ie those confined to enamel and dentine), localized, discrete enamel opacities and intrinsic discolouration of anterior, root canal-treated teeth. Treatment techniques and helpful tips for the general dental practitioner are presented. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This article focuses on common dental aesthetic challenges that present in the paediatric dental population and suggests methods to manage this effectively in primary and secondary care.

Maintain Access Strip Technique (MAST) crown: a novel technique to stabilize anterior teeth while maintaining pulp canal access

The management of an anterior tooth that has undergone breakdown, either due to trauma or failure of previous restorations, poses a challenge for clinicians to restore in situations where endodontic treatment is also necessary. The novel technique described in this Technique Tip: Maintain Access Strip Technique (MAST) crown, allows clinicians to effectively restore function and aesthetic form to an anterior tooth, while maintaining ease of access to the pulpal anatomy for future endodontic treatment. The approach uses clear strip crowns to reproduce coronal structure and anatomy with gutta percha cones for canal projection to maintain a path to the endodontic space. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The MAST crown technique facilitates stabilization of traumatized or broken teeth and maintain ease of access to the root canal.
