Abstract

Gingival veneers have been in clinical use for over 50 years and are a predictable, inexpensive, non-invasive, effective and aesthetically pleasing way of replacing lost tissue. They can also be used as delivery vehicles for topical medicaments. This article describes their indications, contra-indications and construction.

Clinical relevance: Dentists in primary and secondary care should be aware of the use and fabrication techniques of gingival veneers.
