In todays' modern dentistry, the undesirable appearence of dental fluorosis need to be improved to satisfy patients' esthetic requirements in a minimally invasive manner. The approach proposed for the treatment should remove the stained enamel defects, provide blending effect for chalky white appearence and strengthen the enamel against caries development. The purpose of this case report is to present the clinical results of a combined esthetic treatment of a severe fluorosis case with microabrasion, bleaching and resin infiltration. Treatment plan was based on a combined approach of microabrasion, home bleaching and resin infiltration. An improvement in the esthetic appearence was achieved and remained stable in the 6-months follow-up. The technique might be more minimally invasive, less time consuming and cheaper compared to restorative techniques.
