Minimizing Tooth Preparation with Double Veneers: A Case Report on Two-Axis Insertion

Abstract
This case report describes the use of a minimally invasive approach to the anterior dentition using feldspathic ceramic veneers with two axes of insertion. It was developed to restore as much of the hard structures of teeth as possible while at the same time giving the best esthetic outcome. Unlike other types of veneers that require extensive changes to the tooth shape due to single-axis placement, the technique presented allows for two axes of insertion. This approach enables minimal preparation and preserves most of the tooth structure. The veneers were applied on both maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth and additional six years follow up did not show any sign of fractures, debonding or marginal degradation hence proving the long-term success of this concept. The case highlights the significance of rigorous bonding sequence and the particularity of the fabrication process to achieve long-term outcome stability of the restorations. This work further confirms the applicability of double veneer technique as a reliable option for patients who desire change in their teeth appearance but without undergoing surgical procedures, but more research needs to be done with respect to its versatility in dentistry.
