Direct composite veneers versus etched porcelain laminate veneers.

It would appear that over the years, the inherent weakness in composite veneering has been the composite itself. The etched porcelain restoration offers the advantages of increased strength, color, stability, and biocompatibility for a veneering material using composite merely as a luting agent. With the ongoing development of porcelain material, it is possible that the etched porcelain restoration will all but replace direct bonding in most clinical situations.

A temporary-permanent splint.

A method of temporary permanent splinting has been presented which enables the clinician to stabilize anterior teeth aesthetically and rigidly without resorting to cast restorations. The method utilizes an acid-etch composite technique with T.M.S. Pins and has shown itself to be a rapid, cosmetic and durable alternative to either the temporary intra-coronal wire ligation or the more permanent gold prosthesis.

Adjunctive orthodontics in oral rehabilitation.

This paper encompasses a few of the more common indications for adjunctive orthodontics. It is by no means a complete list, but relates to those problems often seen in restorative practice and readily handled by the trained restorative clinician. A multitude of techniques exist for the accomplishment of any of the objectives discussed above. The choice of method to be utilized lies with the aptitude of the clinician concerned. It should be noted that, irrespective of the method used, some form of stabilization will be essential on completion of the tooth movement.
