Abstract

Over exposure to high amount of fluoride during the development of enamel leads to fluorosis. Dental fluorosis is considered to be the most common color disorders of the enamel. It presents with different clinical signs on the enamel of the patients. The diagnosis of dental fluorosis is very challenging in the clinical practice since the enamel defects could be confusing. This case report presented two cases and their treatment for different grades of dental fluorosis to improve the esthetic appearance of the teeth.
