Abstract
Background: A variety of approaches can be employed to close diastemas using conservative and non-conservative restorative techniques such as composite restorations, laminate veneers, and crowning if there is no indication for orthodontic treatment. Objectives: This paper aimed to discuss the mechanical properties of sectional laminate veneers, the preparation, and the ceramic material used for their manufacturing. Material and methods: A case of a maxillary midline diastema closure using feldspathic partial laminate veneers with an ultra-conservative preparation is described. Results: Feldspathic sectional laminate veneers achieve an esthetically pleasant diastema closure. The ultra-conservative preparation and adequate polishing technique preserve dental and gingival tissues. Conclusion: It can be concluded that sectional partial veneers are an esthetic option with low mechanical properties that must be carefully indicated.
