Modern dentistry is constantly evolving, offering techniques that deliver precise, aesthetic, and minimally invasive results. One of the most innovative procedures in this field is the Flowable Injection Technique – a method that combines digital diagnostics, personalized smile design, and highly aesthetic materials into perfect harmony.
What is the Flowable Injection Technique?
The Flowable Injection Technique is a restorative procedure that uses flowable composite material, injected through a precisely fabricated silicone stent directly onto the teeth. These stents are custom-made based on a digitally designed mock-up of the ideal smile, ensuring maximum accuracy, function, and visual appeal.
This technique allows for:
- Correction of shape, size, and position of teeth
- Minimally or non-invasive treatment (no drilling)
- Fast and predictable results
- Excellent adaptation and a natural look
- Long-term stability with the possibility of future touch-ups
When is this technique used?
The Flowable Injection Technique is ideal for:
- Closing diastemas (spaces between teeth)
- Restoring eroded, worn down, or damaged teeth
- Improving the shape of anterior (front) teeth
- Aesthetic smile makeovers for patients with minor structural issues
Step-by-step procedure
- Scanning and analysis – A digital scan of the teeth is taken, and a personalized smile design (mock-up) is created.
- Stent fabrication – Based on the mock-up, transparent silicone stents are made to match the new tooth contours.
- Injection of material – Flowable composite is injected through the stent directly onto the teeth, often without any need for tooth reduction.
- Finishing touches – The stent is removed, and the composite is polished and shaped for a natural, smooth result.
Dr. Kiril explains:
With the Flowable Injection Technique, we provide patients with a natural, elegant smile – without pain, without grinding down their teeth, and with the precision made possible by cutting-edge technology. This is the future of aesthetic dentistry – functional, minimally invasive, and completely personalized.
