Brief summary
The aim of this study was to clinically evaluate single and multi-shade direct veneers.
Detailed description
The use of direct, light-activated resin composites in esthetic restorative dentistry has grown dramatically in response to growing needs. Recent developments have resulted in the creation of restorative materials and methods that, particularly in the anterior area, attempt to restore the natural appearance of the teeth. Numerous clinical conditions, including tooth discolorations, severe fractures, misaligned teeth, and dental caries lesions, can significantly affect smile harmony and esthetic appearance, which can lower quality of life. Modern cosmetic dentistry began with the introduction of laminate veneers in the 1970s, which combined the ideas of tooth conservation and aesthetics. Because laminate veneers (LVs) offer the potential to satisfy the need for extremely beautiful, minimally invasive, long-lasting restorations with superior clinical performance, they have gained popularity as a treatment option. Direct composite veneering preserves natural tooth structure, may be completed chairside, doesn't require repeated appointments, doesn't require luting agents, is minimally invasive, readily repaired, and is less expensive because there are no laboratory fees. Furthermore, their abrasion rates are comparable to those of real tooth structures.
Interventions
