Ideally, a cosmetic restoration should be indistinguishable from the surrounding unrestored dentition. The cosmetic dentist faces the challenging task of creating the restoration using materials that do not possess the light-transmitting properties of natural tooth structures. A thorough knowledge of the physical and physiologic properties of light, color production and perception, and skill in the art of color matching can lead to rewarding success.
The options for correction of unesthetic teeth are numerous; among these treatments, porcelain veneers have received substantial attention from the profession and patients. The increase in dental health awareness and advances in dental materials and technology, such as the acid-etching technique, improved physical properties of composite luting resin, and the use of silane coupling agents, have contributed to the success ceramic veneers enjoy today. However, no single material or technique is without its limitations. This article therefore aims to review the criteria for case selection and the limitations of porcelain veneers in restorative dentistry.
