STRESZCZENIE
The presence of a space, or a diastema,
between anterior teeth, is a common feature
of adult dentitions. There are many techniques
and materials that can be employed to close
diastematas. Ceramic veneers represent a
suitable option to correct the shape, symmetry
and size of anterior teeth, and can also be used
for diastema closure. Improved mechanical
properties of lithium disilicate ceramic material
allows the production of thin and highly esthetic
veneers using a minimally invasive approach.
This article reports a case of diastema closure
using lithium disilicate ceramic veneers. A
25-year-old female patient sought treatment on
a private basis complaining about the shape and
spaces between her maxillary anterior teeth. After
clinical examination and preliminary procedures,
the veneer preparation was carried out. The
next phase involved taking the impression at
the same appointment, using additional silicone
(Variotime, Kulzer). In the laboratory, the lithium
disilicate ceramic (IPS e.max Press A1 HT, Ivoclar
Vivadent) was used for fabrication of the veneers.
After try-in and adequate surface preparation,
a light-cured composite luting cement was
used for cementation of the veneers (Variolink
Esthetic LC neutral, Ivoclar Vivadent). The use
of thin ceramic veneers with minimally invasive
preparation represents a conservative approach
for highly esthetic rehabilitation of diastematas.
