Increasing prevalence of erosive tooth wear (ETW) is notable mainly due to current knowledge and its earlydiagnosis. Once teeth are functionally and/or esthetically affected, dental restorations may become necessary.Materials capable interacting with the eroded tissue allied their resistance subsequent continuouserosive challenges desirable. Giomer technology based on S-PRG (surface pre-reactive glass) filler has beenlaunching provide benefits for treatment innovative multi-ionic release system, whichinvolves fluoride. This case report describes employment preventive restorative materials basedon this a patient under frequent complaining about sensitivity.Patient reported immediate reduction sensitivity been followed up 2 years,presenting satisfactory performance. S-PRG-based systems seem be promissory therapeuticmanagement ETW used simultaneously compliance.KEYWORDSBiocompatible materials; Dental restoration; Smart polymer; Tooth erosion.
