【 摘 要 】

Aim: In many cases, patients visit dental offices unsatisfied with the aesthetic appearance of the upper anterior teeth. Lithium disilicate glass ceramic veneers used in the anterior region provide high aesthetics with maximum conservation of the tooth structure. Case report: A 28 years old patient was unhappy with his upper frontal teeth. The lithium disilicate IPS e.max Press ceramic veneers using a hot pressing technique was planned and fabricated for the patient. Conclusion: Lithium disilicate IPS e.max Press ceramics provide the production of extremely resistant and highly aesthetic prosthetic appliances allowing minimal thickness of the bonded porcelain restorations in the anterior dentition and maximum conservation of the tooth structure.
