Background and Objectives:
The loss of tooth tissue due to wear can cause patients’ concerns particularly when anterior teeth are involved. They often present at their dentists requesting restoration of their ‘worn’ teeth, due to unfavourable aesthetics, difficulties in achieving adequate dental hygiene, hypersensitivity, lack of self-confidence adversely affecting their confidence and quality of life. This study was a clinical report on the management of a patient who presented with such challenges, utilising contemporary restorative materials and techniques.

Methods and Materials:
A patient who presented with tooth wear and sensitivity underwent treatment using Composite injection moulding technique applying the Dahl principles for the treatment of localised anterior tooth wear.

Results:
The approaches using composite injection moulding technique to restore lost anterior tooth tissue whilst applying the Dahl concept for the posterior teeth were successful in restoring function and aesthetics while preserving natural tooth structure. With close follow-up over 3-years, this modality of treatment demonstrated excellent clinical outcomes, including improved occlusal stability, durability of the composite restorations, and high patient satisfaction.

Conclusions:
Treating localised upper and lower anterior tooth wear using a conservative Dahl approach is a viable mode of treatment. It highlights the effectiveness of minimally invasive techniques which address anterior tooth wear, presenting both functional and aesthetic solutions whilst applying minimal intervention principles.
