1. INTRODUCTION
Significant improvements in tooth-colored restorative materials and adhesive techniques have resulted in numerous conservative esthetic treatment possibilities. Although restorative dentistry is a blend of art and science, conservative esthetic dentistry truly emphasizes the artistic component. 5
Aesthetically pleasing restorations of young fractured, malformed or discoloured teeth has been a confusing problem for dentists. In past few years a conservative approach to improve the aesthetic appearance has led widespread use of the veneering system. 6
2. DEFINITIONS
A veneer is a layer of tooth-colored material that is applied to a tooth to restore localized or generalized defects and intrinsic discolorations. A laminate a thin layer of restorative material replacing the enamel. 8 Sturdevant
VENEER “Thin sheet of material usually used as finish” Also defined as “a protective or ornamental facing or a superficial or attractive display in multiple layers frequently termed as Laminate Veneers” 9 GPT 8 Rosensteil

3. HISTORY
Porcelain veneers were introduced by Dr Charles Pincus in Hollywood in 1930s, to enhance an actor’s appearance for close-ups in movie industry. Dr Pincus attached these thin veneers temporarily with a denture adhesive powder. 12
13 Buonocore’s discovery of acid etching enamel (1955). The first major improvement in esthetic materials, especially in the translucency of all porcelain crowns, was introduced by Vines et al. in 1958.
In 1960, Bowen’s introduction of BISGMA resin made possible the use of composite resin as direct veneers. They exhibited poor color stability and wear resistance. Weinstein et al. first discovered the bonding of porcelain-to- gold alloys by means of vacuum firing in the early 1960s. . 14
The first commercial porcelain was marketed in 1966. In 1968, MacCulloch , who first described the methods used for making artificial teeth, veneers and crowns in glass ceramic, utilized this approach. 1970: Faunce described a one-piece acrylic resin veneer as an improved alternative to direct composite resin. 15
1975: Rochette introduced the use of silane coupling agent with porcelain laminate veneers - repairing fractured incisors In 1983, Simonsen and Calamia demonstrated that etching porcelain veneer allowed it to be retained better than composite resins or acrylic resin. 16
In 1993 , Anderson and Oden described a technique for manufacturing individual all-ceramic crowns made up of densely sintered high-purity alumina. 2000-Dumfahrt Herbert and Herbert Schaffer did a retrospective evaluation after one to ten years of service of porcelain laminate veneers (PLVs). 17
They concluded that: 18

10. MATERIAL ADVANCES
Glass Based Ceramics The feldspathic porcelain is composed of three main components: quartz, felspate and kaolin, with the basic component being silica dioxide. Feldspars are mainly comprised of silica dioxide (60% -64%) and aluminum oxide (20% - 23%) and are modified in different techniques to create glass that can be used in dental restorations 49 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
Traditionally feldspathic ceramic veneers are fabricated using layering technique which incorporates refractory dies used to support the condensed layers or ceramic slurry . This technique gives the technician full control over the layers incorporated resulting in a naturally looking restoration. On the contrary, it requires investing time and effort in order to produce accurately fitting restorations. 50 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
CAD/CAM Fabricated The CAD/CAM prefabricated blocks initially present with good mechanical strength because they are manufactured under precise controlled conditions which result in fine crystals and no pores. 51 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
Machinable Feldspathic Porcelain Vita Mark II (Vita Zahnfabrik , Bad Sackingen , Germany), a machinable feldspathic porcelain introdced in 1991 for the CEREC 1 system (Siemens AG, Bensheim , Germany) has improved strength and finer grain size (4 μm ) as compared to conventional feldspathic porcelain . 52 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
It is composed of SiO2 (60% - 64%) and Al2O3 (20% - 23%) and can be etched using hydrofluoric acid to create micromechanical retention for resin cement. Although this product is monochromatic , it is available in several shades including the classical line Vita shades, Vitapan 3D-Master shades, VITABLOCS Esthetic Line, and bleached shade, and can be additionally characterized. 53 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
To overcome esthetic disadvantages of a monochromatic restoration a multicolored ceramic block (Vita Triluxe Bloc, VITA Zahnfabrik ) was designed to create 3-dimensional layered structure. 54 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
The inner third has a dark opaque base layer, while the moderate third has a neutral zone and the outer third is translucent. CEREC software allows the operator to have some visual control over the alignment of the restoration within multilayered block. 55 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
Lithium disilicate reinforced ceramics These are true glass ceramics with a lithium disilicate crystal content of 70%. IPS e-max press ( Ivoclar Vivadent ) was introduced in 2005 as an improved press-ceramic material compared to IPS Empress ceramics. 56 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
It is a lithium disilicate pressed glass ceramic but it has better physical properties and translucency . The crystalline volume and reactive index of IPS e-max press ceramics differ from these of IPS Empress and IPS Empress II ceramics with IPS e-max being more translucent. 57 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
Zirconia Based Ceramics Zirconia based ceramic is polycrystalline material that contain no glass , all the atoms are packed into regular crystalline arrays through which it is much more difficult to drive a crack than it is in the less dense and irregular network found in glasses. So polycrystalline ceramics are much tougher and stronger than glass-based ceramics 58 Sadaqah NR. Ceramic laminate veneers: materials advances and selection. Open Journal of Stomatology . 2014 May 5;2014.
Yttrium oxide partially stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP) has attractive mechanical properties as chemical and dimensional stability, high mechanical strength and fracture toughness. It has a fracture modulus of 900 Mpa and hardness of 1200 vickers units . The cores of zirconia based ceramics have a radiopacity comparable to metal. 59 Sadaqah NR.

Chair-side CAD/CAM Machinable ceramics can be milled to form inlays, onlays , veneers, and crowns using the CAD/CAM technology to produce restorations in one office visit. After the tooth is prepared, the preparation is optically scanned and the image is computerized. The restoration is designed with the aid of a computer. 69 Sakaguchi RL, Powers JM. Craig's restorative dental materials-e-book. Elsevier Health Sciences; 2012 Jul 16.
The restoration is then machined from ceramic blocks by a computer controlled milling machine. The milling process takes only a few minutes . Restorations are bonded to the tooth preparation with resin cements 70 Sakaguchi RL, Powers JM. Craig's restorative dental materials-e-book. Elsevier Health Sciences; 2012 Jul 16.
71 CONCLUSION Ceramic laminate veneers can be fabricated using glass based ceramics, aluminum oxide or zirconium oxide ceramics. Successful ceramic laminate veneers depend upon clinician ability to select the appropriate material to match intraoral conditions and esthetic demands.
