Abstract text: When consulting a dentist, many patients present stained teeth, white spot lesions, deep cracks, chippings, dental abnormalities in shape, volume and position, etc. Not so long ago, all these problems were treated by using crowns, which is not a biological mean and a time consuming method of treatment. Nowadays, patients being more aware than before of technical progress , also become more demanding, as far as dental solutions go. They are no longer willing to compromise asking not only for aesthetic results but also for rapid treatments. Trying to meet these needs, today’s dentists use minimally invasive treatments to solve this kind of dental inconveniences, such as: external bleaching, direct and indirect veneering. This means are biological due to the fact that they are less dental tissue consumers. Veneering can be done directly by the dentist in his office or indirectly by dental technicians, in their laboratories. Should the dentist do it him self directly in the office, the cost of this procedures are lower, making it a more agreeable method for the patient. Our work focuses on detailing this direct method of veneering, which has evolved because of 20 years worth of experience in working with composite materials of excellent aesthetic properties.
