The esthetic challenge shown involved:

the placement of just three veneers

masking very dark teeth

crowded teeth with severe gingival erosion

none of the above

The treatment plan involved:

providing a dramatic change in a short period of time

correcting a problem despite many compromising factors

Recontouring a facially prominent central before placing depth cuts

both a and b

With no-prep veneers:

you cannot close a diastema

you can always shift a midline

you cannot change the proximal contacts of existing teeth

all of the above

For this case, among the patient's motivations:

primarily was the desire to close a space

was a desire to avoid any tooth reduction

both a and b

was to shift the midline and achieve the perfect esthetic solution

For case planning purposes, it was noted that:

a no-prep veneer adds at least 1.5 mm of porcelain to the facial of an unprepared tooth

the average central incisor is 10.5 mm long and 8 mm wide

both a and b

none of the above

For this case, creating an ovate pontic receptor site to obtain proper gingival level:

helped to overcome an esthetic challenge without having to grind on the teeth

was discussed; however, despite its shortcomings, a modified ridge lap approach was used

was never considered because a pontic or an implant was not involved

none of the above

Shade selection for no-prep veneers should take into consideration that:

no-prep veneers are thin and therefore are very translucent

asking for one shade lighter than desired may be necessary when using transparent cement

a veneer cement that is more opaque tends to block light transmission

all of the above

When cementing the no-prep veneers for this case:

it was observed that cleaning the teeth with pumice can interfere with an enamel bond

translucent try-in paste was applied after a 10-second etch

a medium value ("Shade 0") shade and orangewood sticks were used

none of the above

Which of the following is not true about veneer cementation and finishing for this case:

over-curing the cement is avoided by paying close attention to manufacturer's instructions

using a handpiece to clean up cement at the gingival margin can damage glazed porcelain surfaces

a carbide bur and slow speed handpiece can be used to blend the lingual margins and smooth contour

checking the bite for occlusal interference in centric and protrusive is required for no-prep veneers

10.

With no-prep veneers:

dentists' mind-set should be a little different than for prepped veneers

disappointment in the results is usually avoided by keeping the patient's goals in mind

both a and b

none of the above
