“…A complete digital workflow brings benefits for manufacturing CAD/CAM restorations. [5][6][7][8] Digital libraries containing different sizes and shapes of natural teeth make it possible to virtually select a natural smile and to perform an anatomic shell technique. Furthermore, based on principles of smile design, tooth form is chosen and evaluated.…”

ObjectivesNatural restorations combine digital workflow and shell technique to create CAD/CAM restorations with the form and texture of natural teeth. This case report describes an interdisciplinary digital workflow combined with CAD/CAM natural restorations to achieve the naturalness of an anterior rehabilitation. Clinical considerations: A 38‐year‐old patient attended to the office with esthetic issues. An interdisciplinary treatment plan was conducted, which included periodontal surgery to recreate the gingival contour, associated with bleaching and manufacturing CAD/CAM ceramic veneers to return an optimal teeth surface texture and shape.ConclusionsThe design and manufacturing of CAD/CAM natural restorations using a digital workflow allowed a predictable result and overcame the limitations of conventional shell technique.Clinical SignificanceConventional shell technique is used to create restorations with the form and texture of natural teeth. This article presents a combination of the conventional shell technique with a digital workflow, facilitating the design and manufacturing of CAD/CAM natural restorations.

“…Ceramic restorations are among the materials with better esthetic outcomes due to their excellent optical properties and long-term stability. 1,2 Both color and superficial smoothness of ceramic materials have been described to remain unaffected after a period of 10 years, 3 however, a perfect color match cannot always be ensured. 4 Translucency directly affects the final esthetic outcome of the restoration, as dentin constitutes the bulk of a tooth and is largely responsible for its color.…”

Objective: To evaluate color differences (ΔE) of different fabrication steps performed on a feldspathic ceramic and relative translucency parameter (RTP) after glazing; and to evaluate their effects on the color parameters: L*, a* and b*. Material and Methods: Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) feldspathic maxillary right central incisor ceramic crowns (Cerec Blocs;1.4 mm thickness) were fabricated through scanning a model preparation and milling.

“…The esthetic restoration of anterior teeth intends to provide a healthy and harmonious smile, solving some of the most esthetic problems for patients: size, shape, and color of anterior upper teeth. The options to solve these problems range from composite resins to ceramics and each one presents advantages and limitations [1,2].…”

Introduction:The desire for a perfect smile has increased substantially over the past few years. After the esthetic dental treatment, patients seem more confident and happy, which results in greater chances of success in job interviews and better personal relationships.Case Report: A male patient, sought dental care, reporting smile esthetics as the main complaint. After clinical and radiographic evaluations, tooth wear was observed on central and lateral incisors due to dental erosion. A photographic protocol was performed for digital planning and then, from the diagnostic wax-up, a mold was made with addition silicone and bis-acrylic
