Abstract
The esthetic enhancement of the anterior teeth may benefit from at-home bleaching prior to esthetic rehabilitation or prior to recontouring clinical crowns with direct resin-based composite restorations. This clinical case illustrates the treatment details of a patient who wanted to change the color and the shape of her anterior teeth.
