Pressing always takes place within the ideal temperature range for pressing lit- hium disilicate. Thus hardly any reaction layer is created on the surface. This is enhanced by an extermely short press time. The result is a smooth surface and an enormous time savings!

Prior to this step, we selected the appro- priate ceramic layering materi- als with the help of the shade determination photos. Then the veneers were conventionally layered on refractory dies. After the firing process, the restora- tions were carefully finished. Subsequently, the delicate ce- ramic veneers were prepared for placement (Figs 5 to 7). Placement The provisional restorations were removed and the prepared teeth were cleaned. Then the veneers were tried in the mouth (Fig. 8). Try-in sequence: - Dry try-in of each individual restoration for the inspection of fit - Dry try-in of all the restorations together in order to check the proximal contacts - Try-in of the restorations with glycerine paste (Variolink® N Try-In) for determining the shade of the luting composite It is of utmost importance to try in the restorations with a try- in paste in order to select the most suitable shade of the luting composite. In principle, a trans- lucent material is selected for cementing ultra-thin veneers (for example Variolink N Clear Veneer), since the natural tooth structure and the restoration are expected to produce the tooth shade. Nevertheless, if the shade needs to be specially adjusted, try-in pastes in other shades can be tested and used. Once the luting composite had been selected, the try-in paste was rinsed off with water and the restorations were condi- tioned with nine-percent hydro- fluoric acid (HF) for 90 seconds. Then they were thoroughly rinsed with air-water spray. The Fig. 9. The transitions between the ultra-thin veneers and the canines were lightly finished. Fig. 10.

Inspection of the functional parameters Dr. Nelson Geovane Massing XV de Novembro Street 260 Passo Fundo | Brazil nelsonmassing@hotmail.com Contact Information prepared tooth surfaces were cleaned with 35-percent phos- phoric acid for 20 seconds. A si- lane solution (Monobond® Plus) was applied and left to react for one minute, followed by the ad- hesive (ExciTE® F). A light-cur- ing composite (Variolink N Clear Veneer) was used to cement the restorations in place. The restorations were seated according to the corresponding protocol. After the excess ce- ment had been cleaned up, the composite was polymerized for 60 seconds at high light intensity (1,200 mW/cm2, Bluephase®). Since the canines did not re- quire preparation before they received the ultra-thin veneers, the transitions between the res- torations and the teeth had to be lightly finished with a diamond polishing system (OptraFine®). The surfaces were finished by moving from the restoration to the tooth structure in order to prevent any damage being done to the natural dental enamel (Figs 9 and 10). Conclusion The adhesive cementation of ceramic restorations offers a proven treatment strategy, which provides excellent bio- mechanical and esthetic results. In the described case, the nat ural-looking and esthetic result speaks volumes. A satisfied pa- tient with a beaming smile was released from the dental prac- tice (Figs 11 to 13).
