Abstract:

Several decades ago, aesthetic dental needs were not on top of patient interest, but recently aesthetics has taken its rightful place along with functionality due to the increasing knowledge of the field and also advancement in materials and technologies. Consumers now are aware of effect of esthetics of their teeth, on their wellbeing, their acceptance by others, their success in work and in relationships, and their emotional stability informed by books and ongoing media coverage. These same consumers have their unique cases, which depend on pre-existing dental condition, extraoral and intraoral factors, knowledge, expectations, and even financial boundaries. All the previous factors along with clinical and laboratory materials and methods affect the final esthetic outcome of dental treatment. This presentation will discuss all the previous factors, which aim at reaching the aesthetic treatment needed by both patients and dentists.
