Objective

To evaluate the clinical restorative effect of anterior thin porcelain laminate veneers.

Methods

Thin Porcelain laminate veneers were applied to 112 teeth of 64 patients for anterior aesthetic restoration. The follow-up time was 24 months. The veneers were examined with a modified Ryge criteria.

Results

The fracture of the incisal edge on 2 veneers was noticed after 12 months. After 24 months, the partial fracture of the distal incisal corner on 1 veneer was noticed; a gap was detected on the margin of another veneer and discoloration was observed on 5 ones. None of cases showed dentin hypersensitivity or gingivitis.

Conclusion

A satisfying effect could be gotten by using thin porcelain laminate veneer in the anterior teeth with the advantages of less tooth preparation, high repair strength, and not easy to fall off break.
