Vailati, Francesca; Bruguera, August; Belser, Urs Christoph
- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 25-year-old male patient who had weakening and fracturing of the maxillary incisal edges. It comments that the patient showed generalized initial dental erosion and had an accelerated loss of dental enamel. It mentions that palatal and facial dental veneers were also used to restore incisors which showed darkening, and talks about the use of additive diagnostic wax-up to prepare for lithium disilicate ceramic onlays which were etched with hydrofluoric acid.
