Fig. 6: Within a week, all the veneers were ready for try-in. Veneer try-in was done using 3M™ RelyX™ Veneer try-in paste, allowing the patient the ability to preview the makeover prior to final cementation. All veneers were cemented with 3M™ RelyX™ Veneer Cement shade B0.5, except for tooth # 14 which used RelyX Veneer cement shade A3 to cover the darker root shade and crown margin. 3M™ Adper™ Single Bond 2 Adhesive was used as the bonding agent. All veneers were etched with hydrofluoric acid followed by a silane application.
