Devitalized teeth pose a particular challenge in esthetic dentistry. While still functional, these teeth may exhibit esthetic alterations, such as variations in color, changes in shape, or structural fragilities. Faced with these challenges, dental veneers emerge as a promising solution to restore both the esthetics and functionality of devitalized teeth. Dental discolorations are a common esthetic concern. Chemical teeth whitening represents the primary treatment approach. However, some discolorations prove resistant to these techniques, occasionally necessitating prosthetic interventions. This article aims to examine the application of ceramic veneers as an esthetic and conservative solution to overcome the challenges associated with devitalized teeth. We will explore the procedural steps, technological advancements, and clinical considerations that guide this contemporary practice in esthetic dentistry.
