Semidirect Resin Composite Veneers in a Patient with Bruxism

Figure 10

Final outcomes of the restorative treatment using intraoral and extraoral photographs. (a) The intraoral photography captures the semidirect resin composite veneers placed on the central and lateral incisors (teeth #7 to #10) and the direct resin composite restorations on the incisal areas of the canine teeth (teeth #6 and #11). This view highlights the restoration of dental anatomy, interproximal contact, and the shiny surface, effectively rejuvenating the appearance and function of the incisal area between the canine teeth. (b) An extraoral photograph showcases the harmonious integration of the semidirect resin composite veneers with the patient’s lip and smile, emphasizing the esthetic success of the treatment. (c) Another extraoral photograph demonstrates the natural appearance of the semidirect resin composite veneers in the context of the patient’s overall facial esthetics. Following the cementation of the semidirect resin composite veneers, to protect the esthetic treatment from the effects of sleep bruxism, the patient was provided with an occlusal full mouth guard.
