Abstract

Ceramic veneers have evolved in the last few years as an aesthetic restoration in the field of aesthetic dentistry. It is a conservative option as compared to full coverage crowns for improving the patients smile. Ceramic veneers are widely used for smile designing in patients with fluorosis, midline diastema, hypoplastic teeth, and peg shape laterals. Clinical relevance: This article highlights the smile designing of a young patient with fluorosis using ceramic veneers, which not only improves the smile of the patient but has positive psychological benefits.
