„I love your smile” – minimally invasive reconstruction of anterior teeth. A combination of 3D printing, press technique and adhesive bonding

Ceramic veneers present a popular minimally invasive treatment option to restore a person’s smile. Dental materials and techniques are being enhanced all the time. As a result, the fabrication processes are also changing. The successful adhesive bonding technique is consistently being optimized, for example, in terms of its handling.

A growing number of patients are consulting their dentists with the request for an even-looking smile and the realignment of their teeth. In addition to this cosmetic wish, they usually ask that as little as possible of the healthy tooth structure be removed. As a result, the teeth should be prepared according to tooth-preserving principles, without having to make any compromises in terms of the esthetic properties. This balancing act can be achieved with the help of modern ceramic materials – in conjunction with the adhesive bonding technique. Therefore, it is important for the dental team to choose a material that optimally fulfils their functional and esthetic planning requirements. The teeth have to be prepared very carefully. The restorations are adjusted to the smile with artistic flair, while taking into account the principles of proportion. Finally, the restorations are seated in accordance with the guidelines of the adhesive bonding technique. The challenge is to find a way of fabricating ultra-thin ceramic veneers that demonstrate adequate strength and stability. Furthermore, it is important to establish a sound bond between the restorations and the tooth structure by means of the sensitive adhesive bonding technique. In order to ensure long-lasting, successful outcomes, it is recommendable to use products that are optimally coordinated.
