Clinical experiences with bonded porcelain laminate veneers

Abstract

Bonded porcelain veneers can provide successful esthetic and functional long-term service for patients. The purpose of this article is to describe the authors' clinical experiences with veneers over the past decade and to outline the procedures required to achieve predictable success with this conservative esthetic restorative modality. It is hoped that the authors' experiences and those of others will encourage practitioners to consider more routine use of this type of restoration in many of their more complex reconstructive cases.
