Advances in bonding technology have allowed the dentist to create truly esthetic restorations. However, some clinical situations still present difficult esthetic challenges. A common area of difficulty is the maxillary Class IV, where the interface between restorative material and tooth structure is frequently visible. Using a combination of composite resins, the authors present a technique for solving this problem to create esthetic, natural‐looking Class IV restorations.
