Abstract
The development of adhesive restorative techniques has radically changed our treatments. Thanks to these improvements, today we can restore teeth with minimum sacrifice of good dental structure using direct composite, indirect ceramic and composite and veneers. For the restoration of little fractures of the enamel the best choice will be the direct technique but when we need to change the shape, the occlusion or to restore all the anterior teeth, the indirect solution is the best. Also with indirect, the new approach is to maintain the maximum of good dental structure because it has been shown that the percentage of success is higher when the enamel is preserved during the preparation. The aim of this presentation is to show all the new techniques available for the restoration of natural anterior teeth and implants using a “biomimetic” approach.
