[Porcelain laminate veneers (HI-CERAM)].
A cosmetic dentist designs a smile not solely for form and function but also for the personality, status, life-style, sex or occupation of the recipient. The smile is seen as an integral part of the face or, in a larger sense, of the whole person. The advent of bonding provided the concerned dentist with the means to attach composite resins, in their various shades, to the tooth surface in order to create esthetic illusions or to cover up unsightly teeth. A recent major break through that facilitated predictable retention of porcelain to the tooth surface has added a new dimension to esthetic dentistry. Porcelain veneers can be considered to be very much the "State-of-the-art" in cosmetic dentistry because they offer innumerable advantages over any previous form of veneering systems.
