Single-unit implant-supported restoration adjacent to multiple lithium disilicate restorations, an approach to an esthetic challenge: A clinical report.

This clinical report describes a method for predictably shade matching a highly opaque yttrium-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) implant restoration adjacent to relatively translucent lithium disilicate veneers in the maxillary anterior region. To achieve a satisfactory outcome, the milled Y-TZP abutment was layered with low-fusing feldspathic porcelain to match the stump shade of the adjacent prepared teeth; this layer subsequently facilitated adhesive bonding of a veneer to the abutment before insertion.
