Abstract: The injectable moulding composite resin technique is an indirect method that uses a transparent silicone index for accurate and predictable translation of a diagnostic wax - up into composite restorations without tooth preparation. This case study is about a 20 - year - old boy who had aesthetic and functional issues related to tooth spacing and diastemas. An articulator was used to simulate functional movements in order to create a wax - up, and then a transparent silicone index was made over the wax - up. Vent holes were created in this clear silicone index through which flowable composite was injected and polymerized to reconstruct the teeth. The method explained is affordable and minimally invasive. The objectives of the therapy are to restore appropriate function and aesthetics; benefits include preservation of tooth structure and cost - effectiveness. Stable and predictable outcomes are achievable with careful design and application of best practices.
