Prefabricated Laser Sintered Composite Veneers and Occlusal Vertical Dimensions: Case Reports

J Contemp Dent Pract. 2018 Nov 1;19(11):1417-1423.

Abstract

Aim: To highlight the concept of prefabricated veneers and occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) and series of case report using edelweiss prefabricated veneer system.

Background: Edelweiss prefabricated veneer system presents a concept of biofunctional esthetics using laser sintered composite resins. The system's biofunctionality and versatile area of application combined with its time and cost saving procedure make the Edelweiss veneer and occlusion system a sound investment for the future.

Case description: A series of case reports treated using prefabricated laser sintered composite veneer system has been presented.

Conclusion: Prefabricated veneer is a milestone in operative dentistry, as it contributes tremendously to direct composite application, helping a larger number of our patients to receive esthetic restorations that are more conservative and affordable.

Clinical significance: The prefabricated composite veneering technique provides a minimally invasive, chair-side technique for esthetic and full mouth rehabilitation.
