‘Porcelain Veneers, a Smile Make Over’: A Short Review

Abstract

Technological advances in materials and techniques have been allowing to obtain natural esthetic results with conservative interventions. Ceramic veneers are very effective tools for
both esthetic and functional rehabilitation. Laminate veneers are a conservative treatment of unesthetic anterior teeth. This evolution of materials, ceramics, and adhesive systems permits improvement of the esthetic of the smile and the self-esteem of the patient. This review gives an insight about the evolution, indications, contraindications, advantages, and disadvantages, material aspects, techniques of the laminates as an effective esthetic restoration.
