Abstract

Dental fluorosis is a condition caused by chronic ingestion of excess fluoride during tooth enamel formation. This induces subsurface porosities to varying extents depending on the severity of fluorosis. Such patients consult dentist mainly for aesthetic reasons. Selection of an appropriate treatment plan for such cases depends on the severity of the condition. Laminate veneers is a conservative method of restoring the appearance of discoloured, pitted teeth, and teeth with diastemas that provide extremely good aesthetic results. They are considered as the treatment of choice for moderate to severe cases of dental fluorosis given the optimum aesthetics, wear resistance, biocompatibility, and long-term results of these veneers.
