Oct 2026 · Open Dentistry Journal · 0 citations · 21 references

Abstract

Dental professionals strive to achieve natural, optical, and biomimetic results in esthetic rehabilitation. The predictability of veneer therapy is based on shape, color, and advanced clinical proficiency. This clinical case report describes the anterior esthetic management of a 60-year-old female patient presenting aesthetic concerns related to pre-existing direct composite restorations. A diagnostic wax-up followed by an intraoral mock-up was performed to facilitate three-dimensional evaluation of the proposed restorative outcome and to obtain patient approval prior to definitive treatment. Complete anterior rehabilitation was obtained using lithium disilicate glass-ceramic veneers. Laboratory procedures were conducted in close collaboration with a skilled dental technician to achieve precise surface texture, translucency gradients, and anatomical contouring consistent with adjacent natural teeth. Adhesive luting protocols were meticulously implemented to optimize bonding performance and marginal integrity. Postoperative assessment revealed high patient satisfaction in terms of both aesthetics and function. The present case underscores the clinical relevance of biomimetic restorative strategies and preoperative visualization tools in enhancing treatment predictability, functional integration, and patient-centered outcomes in contemporary aesthetic dentistry.
