The treatment of palatal erosive wear by using oxidized gold veneers: a case report.
Eight maxillary anterior teeth with severe palatal erosion in an anorexic patient were restored with oxidized gold veneers and without tooth preparation. Because of the extensive exposure of dentin, a cement based on 4-methacryloxyethyl trimellitate anhydride was used as the luting agent.
