Patients seeking to improve the appearance of their smiles have driven the profession toward more challenges in esthetic dentistry to answer their needs. Better smiles are being equated with better living. Direct composite veneering has gained tremendous popularity over the past few years because the procedure can be done in one single appointment for a reasonable fee with acceptable results. Materials recently put on the market require stratification build-up techniques to allow for the best natural results. In addition, the procedure gives patients the freedom of live communication and dentists the emotive artistic recreation of a smile composition in which anterior teeth can be designed and redesigned through freehand craftmanship, until both patient and dentist are pleased with the results. This review highlights the benefits of direct composite veneering, a very unique process to investigate more about tooth and smile designs, and suggests more effective communication between patient and dentist in order to achieve predictable results.
