Abstract:
Composite and porcelain veneers offer a conservative method of masking discolouration of the teeth of younger patients. Composite veneers are the less destructive of tooth tissue, but also the less durable. This two-part article reviews the use of veneers in treating the adolescent patient. Part 1 examines indications for treatment and gives a step-by-step guide to the clinical procedure for veneering with composite. Next month, Part 2 will cover porcelain veneers and draw some overall conclusions.
