ABSTRACT
The use of dental ceramics on anterior teeth is associated with predictable and long-lasting esthetic results. However, treatment on darkened substrates is challenging. Various conservative options, including ceramic veneers, are available to change the shape and color of anterior teeth. The aim of this case report is to describe the esthetic rehabilitation of a darkened central incisor in a maxillary anterior region that had irregular gingival contours, multiple composite resin restorations, and unsatisfactory tooth shapes. Harmony was restored through periodontal recontouring surgery, placement of a lithium disilicate crown (consisting of a veneer cemented to a coping) on the darkened central incisor, and placement of lithium disilicate veneers on the other maxillary anterior teeth.
