Combined use of splinted labial lithium disilicate veneers and a bonded nickel-chromium alloy palatal splint for tooth stabilization: A clinical report with 4-year follow-up.

Abstract This clinical report describes the restoration of severely compromised maxillary teeth in a 20-year-old woman secondary to excessive root shortening and minimal bone support but surrounded by healthy and esthetic soft tissues. The maxillary bone volume precluded provision of an implant-supported fixed or removable dental prosthesis without extensive grafting procedures. Splinted labial lithium disilicate veneers and a bonded nickel-chromium alloy palatal splint were used to stabilize and retain the structurally compromised maxillary teeth. At the 4-year review, the splinted veneers remained intact.
