patients requiring improvement of the shape, color, or position of their anterior teeth. Ceramic veneers have been extensively and successfully used to mask intrinsic staining, to give the appearance of straightening, and to correct minor malformations of anterior teeth without the removal of substantial amounts of sound tooth substance. The current literature was reviewed to search for the most important parameters determining the long-term success and correct application of ceramic veneers.  \nKeywords: ceramic veneers, esthetic treatment  \nIntroduction  \nCeramic veneers (CVs), which are chosen to provide excellent esthetics, are a wellestablished treatment method for conservative esthetic restoration of malformed, discolored, misaligned, traumatized, fractured, and worn anterior teeth. The recommended superficial preparation within the enamel and adhesive luting facilitates restoration with minimal loss of healthy tooth structure.1  \nMagne and Belser2 presented the following classification for indications for ceramic veneers:  \n• Type I: Teeth resistant to bleaching  \no Type IA: Tetracycline discoloration  \no Type IB: Teeth that are unresponsive to bleaching  \n• Type II: Major morphologic modifications  \no Type IIA: Conoid teeth  \no Type IIB: Diastema or interdental triangles to be closed  \no Type IIC: Augmentation ofincisal length or facial prominence  \n• Type III: Extensive restorations  \no Type IIIA: Extensive coronal fracture  \no Type IIIB: Extensive loss of enamel by erosion and wear  \no Type IIIC: Generalized congenital malformations.  \nWithin this classification system, the use of minimal-preparation and nopreparation CVs can achieve the desired esthetic outcome in a conservative manner for Types I and II.  \nInitially, CVs were fabricated from stacked feldspathic porcelain and used in a“no-prep” manner in 0.5–0.7 mm thickness.3 Although not removing healthy tooth structure was admirable, it often provided less-than-desirable results.
