A polychromatic composite layering approach for solving a complex Class IV/direct veneer/diastema combination: Part II.
Restoration of a Class IV defect in the aesthetic zone in combination with a direct resin veneer can be a considerable challenge for clinicians, especially when striving to emulate the natural dentition. Shade-matching is a particular concern in achieving a natural-looking aesthetic result. Value enamels can also be used over selective areas of a Class IV restoration as needed to modify the perception of the chroma of underlying layers of artificial dentin and body enamel. This second and concluding part provides a discussion of how an advanced polychromatic composite layering technique can be used to meet the patient's aesthetic expectations.
