Abstract

Tooth discoloration is a common problem and affects people of all ages. Apart from the conventional treatment modalities for the same, newer options are available today with better techniques and materials.

This case report describes the successful rehabilitation of dental fluorosis in a 25-year-old girl patient using laminate veneers. The patient presented with stained teeth and enamel irregularities, seeking for an aesthetic rehabilitation. This report discusses the treatment planning, clinical procedures, and outcomes achieved, emphasizing the role of laminate veneers in restoring the patient's smile and self-confidence.
