Aesthetic Smile Rehabilitation: Teeth Whitening and Ceramic Veneers
Problem
The patient presented with concerns about the appearance of the upper front teeth. He was dissatisfied with their colour, shape, and the overall harmony of his smile.
- Discolouration of the front teeth
- Irregular shape and anatomy of teeth 12, 11, 21, and 22
- Desire for a natural aesthetic result with minimal preparation of the natural tooth structure
Solution
During the first visit, Philips Zoom 4 professional teeth whitening was performed to brighten the teeth and create an even foundation for the future restorations.
At the second visit, a mock-up was tried in, allowing the patient to preview the shape of the future smile. This was followed by minimally invasive preparation of the four front teeth, digital scanning, and placement of temporary restorations.
At the third visit, four custom-made ceramic veneers were bonded using a modern adhesive protocol.
The result was a harmonious, natural-looking smile that preserved the individual anatomy of the teeth, with the veneers seamlessly integrated in both colour and shape—all achieved in just three visits.
