The additive only Provánce® Composite Veneers design below represents the ideal minimal addition of restorative material to improve both function and aesthetics.
Additionally, the additive only design model illustrates areas where grinding of healthy tooth structure (areas where additive material is not applied) would be required to accomodate any
veneer even "no prep" porcelain veneers, prefabricated shells or plastic templates. Any technique other than Provánce® Composite Veneers would be more invasive and
unnecessary. Patient candidacy for true "no prep" cases is maximized with the patented Provánce® Composite Veneer System.
Many times, the Provánce® design additions will create cuspid guidance and posterior disclusion. Tooth reduction or equilibration that may have been considered
conservative prior to the additions would now be considered excessive. If tooth reduction or equilibration is still required, it is usually much less. If the case requires opening of the verticle
dimension, typically any adjustments required will be on the Provánce® Composite Veneers rather than the natural tooth structure.
If transitioning to porcelain restorations, Provánce® is an ideal long-term provisional. The bonded Provánce® Composite Veneers make the provisional process easier
and more economical to maintain (e.g. less sensitivity, broken temps, micro leakage, excessive staining, difficult hygiene and tissue maintenance).
When transitioning to porcelain, the final tooth dimension has already been established by the Provánce® Composite Veneers. These final tooth dimensions allow one
restoration to be completed at a time without compromise to the overall design. Tooth reduction will be easier and, in many areas, will begin at the composite layer (i.e., Provánce® Composite Veneers
would be considered the core build-up).
The Provánce® Composite Veneer design allows the dentist to easily visualize and determine the most conservative preparation design (e.g. veneer, onlay instead of a
crown).
