摘要

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical results of 323 porcelain laminate veneers over a period of 3 to 11 years. Material and Methods: This study included 70 patients, aged between 18 and 74 years. Of the 323 total veneers, 124 were of a simple design and 199 were of a functional design. The condition of the soft tissues and hygiene, in addition to the condition of the abutment teeth, the restorations and patient satisfaction were all clinically examined. In carrying out the statistical analysis, a descriptive approach was taken in analyzing the data. The Kaplan Meier method was used for statistically analyzing the survival rates of the porcelain laminate veneers. Results: Analysis of the soft tissue revealed marginal recession in 7.7% of the cases, and in 21.6% of the cases, bleeding was detected on probing. Analysis of the condition of the abutment teeth revealed secondary caries and hypersensitivity in 3.1% of the cases, and changes in pulp vitality were observed in 2.8% of the cases. In studying the condition of the restorations, marginal integrity was observed to be excellent in 98% of the cases, slight marginal pigmentation was present in 39.3% of the cases, fractures were present in 4% of the cases and decementation in 9% of the cases. The degree of patient satisfaction was considered to be excellent in 97.1% of the cases. Conclusions: Porcelain laminate veneers are a predicable treatment option that offer excellent results.
