Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how the thickness of porcelain layers and the underlying substrate affect the color properties and translucency of IPS e.max LT porcelain laminate veneers designed to cover tetracycline stained teeth.
  • Various thickness combinations (both core and veneer) were tested under different backgrounds, with specific measurements of color differences and translucency parameters taken using a spectrophotometer.
  • Results indicated that increased thickness generally improved color matching and translucency, but thickness impacts varied depending on the substrate, with significant distinctions found across different thickness combinations.

Department of Implantology and Prothodontics, Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Kunming Medical University, School of Stomatology, Kunming Medical University. Kunming 650100, Yunnan Province, China.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to introduce a minimally invasive bone splitting technique which is suitable for cases with missing anterior teeth and obvious depression of alveolar bone in labial side, and to evaluate its clinical results.

Methods: Minimally invasive bone splitting technique was used in 8 healthy adults with bone defects in the aesthetic zone. The labial alveolar bone incisions were confined around the bone defects which were smaller than traditional incisions.
