Photo Essay: Anterior Procera Zirconia Crowns with No-Prep Vivaneers

This patient presented with some interproximal decay and some failing composites on teeth #7–10. The teeth were prepared according to the Reverse Preparation Technique to ensure adequate reduction for the laboratory. The caries was stained and removed, and the deficient areas were built-up with a self-etching flowable composite. Procera™ zirconia crowns (Nobel Biocare; Yorba Linda, Calif.) were placed on teeth #7–10, and to finish the smile, no-prep Vivaneers™ were placed on the cuspids and bicuspids, resulting in an esthetic smile.
