Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Dental Materials Science
  • Aesthetic Dentistry

Background:

  • Porcelain laminate veneers (PLVs) are increasingly favored for minimally invasive aesthetic dental procedures.
  • Effective treatment planning and precise tooth preparation are essential for successful PLV outcomes.
  • Existing preparation guidelines for PLVs lack standardization and vary by clinical indication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a straightforward and accurate tooth preparation technique for porcelain laminate veneers.
  • To provide a universally applicable method for veneer preparation irrespective of tooth position or condition.

Main Methods:

  • A detailed description of a simplified, precise tooth preparation protocol for PLVs.
  • Emphasis on achieving adequate space for porcelain material while maintaining minimal invasiveness.
