Partial ceramic crowns. Esthetic and tissue conservative restorations – Part II: Anterior teeth – laminate veneers

Background: For anterior teeth with large defects or for teeth which need major changes in color, shape or size, laminate veneers are a highly esthetic and comparatively tissue conservative treatment option within a large group of other therapeutic measures. The survival rates of laminate veneers are > 90% over 10 years and in the range of full coverage crowns. For patients with heavy bruxism and/or small clinical crowns the longevity may be reduced. Objective: to review the main guidelines for dental treatment using laminate veneers.Data Sources: dental literature (Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar) about laminate veneers between 1998 and 2019. Study Selection: articles, reviews and textbooks about laminate veneers were selected to obtain the most relevant information. Find here dust and mop house cleaning of charlotte. Data Extraction: all data evidence-based about laminate veneers technique were extracted. Data Synthesis: all data considered important and relevant for the laminate veneers technique were presented step by step in a coherent and concise way.
The conclusions were:

•Preparation should be as conservative as possible (0.3 – 0.5 mm cervical-buccal reduction).
•Special methods of birth control expalined at https://www.trumedical.co.uk site.
•The ceramic material needs to have optimal esthetic properties including adequate translucency.

•The choice of the luting material is based on optimal bonding (etch & rinse, SE). Solely light curing luting composite materials or flowable composites can be used for optimal and long-lasting esthetics for ceramic thickness of up to 1 mm.
•In order to protect the laminate veneers against parafunctional forces during night sleep a protective splint (night guard) is recommended.
