“…By using a mock-up, the clinician verifies esthetics, phonetics and function. The shapes of the teeth, their length, the relationship between the incisal edges and the lower lip, the midline and the color are examined, and, at that stage, the patient can see and accept the final result [ 27 ]. In a previous publication, significant differences between the mock-up and the diagnostic wax-up were observed using several popular materials for the index and the mock-up [ 27 ].…”

“…The shapes of the teeth, their length, the relationship between the incisal edges and the lower lip, the midline and the color are examined, and, at that stage, the patient can see and accept the final result [ 27 ]. In a previous publication, significant differences between the mock-up and the diagnostic wax-up were observed using several popular materials for the index and the mock-up [ 27 ]. Since the injection of flowable composite resin in a silicone transparent mold proved to be a quite accurate replication of the wax-up in the present study, it could be proposed to be used for the mock-up procedure as well, to avoid the discrepancies between the mock-up and wax-up previously described [ 27 ].…”

“…At the tooth profile cross-section window, the contour tracings of the teeth were automatically carried out by the software and linear measurements of the aligned models were taken ( Figure 9 ). This procedure has been previously published by Moldovani et al [ 27 ]. Three measurements for each tooth were made at the labial surface: incisal, middle and cervical.…”

Purpose: To evaluate the discrepancy between the diagnostic wax-up and the resulting direct veneers using different matrices. Materials and method: A total of 48 identical misaligned models, 12 wax-up models and one ‘every other tooth’ wax-up model were 3D printed. Group 1: Transparent silicone matrices with holes for the injection of the flowable composite. Group 2: The same procedure as group 1, but the first three teeth were restored using the matrix constructed from the ‘every other tooth’ wax-up model. Group 3: Transparent silicone matrices cut for each tooth and preheated resin composite. Group 4: The same procedure as group 3, but the loaded matrix was placed first in the clear plastic tray, which was used for the matrix’s fabrication. Group 5: Wax-up models (control group). Scans from the veneers were superimposed with the scans from the wax-up and compared using the Patient Monitoring software. Measurements were made at the incisal, middle and cervical third. Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn post-hoc test (p < 0.05) were used to analyze the results. Results: No statistically significant differences were found between groups 1 and 2 and the control. Group 3 was different from the control in the incisal and middle third, and group 4 was different in the cervical third. Conclusions: (1) Use of one or two matrices and the injection of flowable composite were accurate techniques. (2) Use of a matrix for each tooth combined with a pre-heated composite was the most inaccurate technique, but the use of the clear tray in combination with the matrix improved the accuracy.

Using composite resin restoration of full‐coverage crowns to obtain a completely symmetrical esthetic restoration of individual central incisors remains difficult. Freehand direct composite resin restoration is challenging even for highly skilled dentists. This clinical report describes a digital protocol for achieving symmetrical restoration of two central incisors using a custom‐designed, two‐in‐one template.
