title: An alternative method for cementing laminate restorations with a micropulse toothbrush.
abstract: Because porcelain laminate veneers are fragile and thin, seating should be handled carefully, but complete seating is essential for a successful restoration. When a high-viscosity luting resin is chosen, high pressure will be needed to seat the veneer, which makes it possible to fracture the material with finger pressure. This technical report describes a straightforward and safe cementation technique for porcelain laminate veneers as well as for complete crown, inlay, and onlay restorations.
