Objective: Depending on the degree of saturation and time that pigments have been in the dental?tissue, teeth with severe color change may have a poor prognosis for bleaching treatment. Case Report: In the reported case, after a careful clinical history and evaluation of clinical case a?conservative treatment with composite resin restoration was carried out on superior central incisor?with severe darkening. Direct composite resins with different opacity and translucency in association?with resin pigments and a conservative technique were used guaranteeing a minimal intervention and?giving a natural aspect to the tooth. The use of pigments made possible less wear of dental structure?for insertion of the composite resin, mimetizing the restored tooth with the corresponding teeth. Conclusion: It was concluded that in some cases where indirect restorations would be indicated,?when different kinds of dental materials and techniques are applied, direct restorative treatment?would be a great option for esthetic restorations.
