ABSTRACT
Since its introduction more than two decades ago etched porcelain veneer restoration has proved to be a durable and aesthetic modality of treatment. These past 25 years of success can be attributed to great attention to detail in the following areas: planning the case, conservative (enamel saving) preparation of teeth, proper selection of ceramics to use, proper selection of the materials and methods of cementation of these restorations, proper finishing and polishing of the restorations and proper planning for the continuing maintenance of these restorations. This article represents a case of midline diastema which was aesthetically corrected using laminate veneer.
Keywords: Midline diastema correction, laminate veneer.
