Abstract
Structural abnormalities of the anterior teeth could be aesthetically compromising in young patients. The dentist must provide solutions while preserving dental tissue. Microabrasion approach can be a solution. We conducted a systematic literature review to evaluate whether microbrasion treatment in paediatric dentistry can improve aesthetic in cases of pre- or post-eruptive discolorations on tooth enamel. 741 articles published up to September 2021 were selected from 3 databases using the key word “microabrasion”. 11 prospective studies including 6 randomized were relevant to the inclusion criteria. Microabrasion appears to be an effective and reliable technique for the management of pre and post enamel discoloration in paediatric dentistry, especially in fluorosis. More high-powered, well-conducted randomized studies with complete evaluation criteria are needed for other types of spots. Standardization of criteria for assessing treatment success and of the protocol required should be explored.
