Ten-year clinical observation of a porcelain laminate veneer seated with biological tissue adaptation (BTA) technique.

This clinical report describes the use of biological tissue adaptation technique for placement of a porcelain laminate veneer in a 50-year-old woman. The author developed this prosthetic technique to facilitate alignment of gingival levels for esthetic purposes. The laminate veneer was seated on the maxillary central incisor with an adhesive system. Although the margin of the restoration overhangs, no gingival inflammation or recession has been observed during a follow-up period of 10 years and 9 months.
