Abstract

Porcelain Laminate Veneer is used widely throughout the world for esthetic correction for discolored and damaged tooth structures. Esthetic treatment of a single darkened tooth represents a great challenge to the dental practitioner. The properties of dental ceramic - colour stability, mechanical strength, clinical longevity, esthetic appearance and compatibility with periodontal tissues make this material a good choice for such treatment. A case of restoration of a single highly darkened anterior tooth with a feldspathic porcelain veneer. Resolution involved preparation of the dental structure. Conservative use of porcelain laminate veneers provides satisfactory esthetic outcomes and preserves sound tooth structure. The patient was very satisfied with the result and had no complaints in the follow-ups.
