Contact Lens Feldspathic Chip




This patient came to us after ortho treatment. When the brackets were removed so was his old bonding on number 9. The patient finally came in two years after his braces were removed with the old bonding to veneer tooth number 9 - For this case we decided to veneer with feldspathic porcelain utilizing the refractory technique to pick up all the natural color from his natural abutment. We like this technique as we can get a veneer as thin as 0.1mm giving a see through (contact lens) effect - Our Dr. made the finish line in the middle third of the tooth so we could keep his natural healthy tissue - We achieved this result by overextending the margin and had our Dr. finish the ceramics right to the tooth using silicone's and dialights intra-orally after bonding.
