Clinical class in endodontics was conducted at AHEAD
Academy, New Delhi. The topic of discussion was veneers and laminates. The
types of veneering were explained to the students.. The step-by-step procedure
of veneering was elaborated by the staff. The new students were explained the
basic chair positions while operating a patient on dental chair. Porcelain
veneers (also referred to as dental laminates), are wafer-thin shells made out
of dental ceramic that are bonded onto the front side of teeth. Laminate
veneers are restorations which are envisioned to correct existing
abnormalities, esthetic deficiencies and discolorations. Laminate veneer
restorations have two different types: direct and indirect laminate veneers.
Direct laminates are applied on prepared tooth surfaces with a composite resin
material directly in the dental clinic. Absence of necessity for tooth
preparation, low cost for patients compared with indirect techniques and other
prosthetic approaches, reversibility of treatment and no need for an additional
adhesive cementing system are some advantages of this technique. Intraoral
polishing of direct laminate veneers is easy and any cracks or fractures on the
restoration may be repaired intraorally and marginal adaptation is better than
that of indirect laminate veneer restorations.
