Direct bonding of composite resins to fractured or discolored teeth has been shown to be a practical and effective method for restoring teeth. Previously, lack of uniform shade matching and excessive bulkiness of material have been associated with full veneer bonding. The ultraviolet light (Nuva-Lite) in our studies penetrates veneers as thick as 2 mm and effectively cures the filler material. We also have used cold-curing bonding materials (Concise and Adaptic) and they seem to be equally effective, although working time is shortened. We have had no clinical problems with this technique and after two years the veneers are intact (Fig 6). A technique has been presented that requires no tooth reduction, except where necessary for caries removal, or time-consuming contouring and color shading. Laminate veneers enable the dental practitioner to obtain consistent esthetics with minimal chair time. Further evaluation of this technique to restore malformed, fractured, or discolored permanent incisors is being conducted.
