Conference summary

Laminate ceramic veneers and conservative crowns, named “full veneers” are treatment options for aesthetic and functional restorations, and have been more and more utilized by clinicians as a predictable type of rehabilitation procedures for anterior and posterior dentition.

When bonded to enamel these modalities of treatment allow clinicians to obtain a long-term stable result. Using current laboratory techniques associate with a strict clinical bonding protocol is possible to deliver very thin restorations, with minimal loss of dental hard tissue.

However, two special issues must be addressed: teeth preparation and material selection have an important role in clinical longevity, because many times dentin is already present and may drastically change the approach. This presentation will show how dental occlusion may affect those factors, changing the way we plan, execute, deliver and control an Oral Rehabilitation.
