The treatment of erosion using porcelain veneers.
Two cases reported here demonstrate the use of porcelain veneers to restore lost tooth tissue due to erosion. The veneers have advantages compared with other restorations in terms of aesthetics and resistance to wear. The patients described in these two reports have been seen over periods of two and three years and have been satisfied with the results, with each reporting no further pain.
