This was a very thorough report on esthetic dentistry. I especially enjoyed the section on veneers. Getting as much exposure to this now will really help us in the future.

Great paper and good job on the presentation. I agree with the paper when it comes to having good communication with labs. Esthetic dentistry demands a high quality result. Letting the lab know what you want will help you get it.

I am looking forward to your presentation. We only got a little information regarding veneers, so I am still mostly in the dark when it comes to indications, preparations, and complications.

Good job. Communication with the lab is very important. I was wondering if digital images could be standardized as a way of better communication with the lab.

Good paper! I look foward to your presentation since we learned so little about this topic in our first two years.

It is apparent that good communication between the dentist and the lab is necessary when placing veneers. Do digital cameras effectively show the detail necessary for a high quality veneer?

I am very interested to hear your presentation! It is nice that the subject of veneers is being discussed in detail. Too bad our preclinical preparation in this subject is so weak. Perhaps the winds of change will improve on this in the future.

Esthetics is such an important part of patient denstistry and veneers are certainly a big part of that phenomenon. Interesting paper and I look forward to hearing more at your presentation.

Group 8 you did a great job on writing your paper and it has a lot of interesting info. I am looking forward to your presentation because this topic is reall interesting to me and will be very useful in the future. I am also looking forward to your case presentation.

Good Paper group 8. The veneer topic is one that we probably won't get to experience much in clinic and so any information in this area is helpful. I'm looking forward to this presentation.

Nice paper guys. I found the section on composite veneers to be really helpful. One of my patients may need a veneer on one tooth but she's not sure if she can afford a porcelain one. Composite might be a nice option for her.

Great paper group 8! I like hearing as much as possible about subjects like this one since we haven't done veneers in lab or may not get to do a case while in school. Your section on shade selection is very helpful for clinic. We learned to use natural light to select shades, but Dr.s in clinic have said to use the dental light to select. What did you find out in the literature is the best choice?
Brian McDonald <bmcdonal@umn.edu>
- Monday, November 25, 2002 at 23:26:45 (CST)
Great paper!! I really enjoyed researching this popular topic. I feel the most interesting points of the paper delt with the challenge of color selection, as well as the importance of a correct and esthetic smile design.

Veneers are an extremely exciting alternative to the full porcelin crown. I did find it amazing that patients thought that the color was the most important aspect.
Bardley Morrison <morr0188@tc.umn.edu>

Interesting topic area and good paper. I especially liked the details on the steps to follow in dialog with the patient and communication with the lab for best, most predictable, results.

I'm really glad we're learning more and more about veneers. It would have been nice if we had a couple veneer lectures in operative last year, prior to being in clinic. I was wondering if composite and porcelain veneers have the same longevity? Do porcelain veneers last longer?
Roxane Huber <hube0079@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 25, 2002 at 19:35:58 (CST)
I think it's great that art and mathematics, two disimilar disciplines, combine to play such a large role in an effort to attain superior esthetic results with the placement of veneers.
Ryan Francis <fran0540>

This is the best paper I have ever read. Whoever did the editing is a genius. Wit, wisdom, and some stuff about teeth, BRILLIANT!!
Seriously, I can't wait for the presentation to share our wisdom with you.

Very interesting and exciting topic! Great paper Group 8. I especially appreciate the sections on color selection and perscription writing - since I think color is a major consideration from the patient's point of view. Are there recommended cements for veneers? different shades available?

good paper. It will be nice to hear a little on types of communications tools to use with the lab and when you should have the patient walk into the lab to get a shade match. This would be helpful especially for one or two anterior teeth. Also, tools such are different camaras to use with the lab will be interesting.

Great paper group 8! I thought it was both interesting and informative. I have a couple of patients who have had veneers placed in the past and the esthetic result is amazing. I really look forward to trying a case in clinic.

I think porcelain veneers are the wave of the future in esthetic dentistry. Hopefully we will all get a chance to experience a treatment plan involving these restorations.

I really enjoyed reading your paper. It was very well organized and the subheadings made it very easy to read without getting bored. My question is: If you choose supragingival margins and they are initially invisible, what happens when staining of the margins begins just like it does on anterior composites? Isn't this inevitable?
Adena Borodkin <boro0038@umn.edu>

I like your paper. I hope to hear more about your findings on veneer longevity.

Nice job covering this interesting procedure! I know that it will be hard to come by a patient in our clinics that is interested in or can afford veneers. The information on this topic that we can get the better. Good job and I look forward to tomorrows presentation.

I am interested to hear about your case presentation. How difficult was this case, being that it was your first time working with veneers? This is the situation that many of us will find ourselves in after dental school, without an instructor present to help us out.
Katie Lantz <lant0025@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 25, 2002 at 08:28:41 (CST)
Great paper group 8! This information will be very important as many of us will be approached in the clinics or in private practice about veneers.

gosh, why do i feel stupid about leaving a comment for my own paper? i'm interested to see all of the before/after slides that we will display during our presentation...i think that we can go overboard with veneers sometimes...a facial defect on #8 shouldn't lend itself to six anterior veneers, but i found multiple examples of such treatment...did y'all find the same thing?
Julie Smith <smit1631@umn.edu>
- Sunday, November 24, 2002 at 20:57:39 (CST)
Great paper group 8! I thought you did a wonderful job of presenting the pros and cons! Both sides were covered equally well. It was interesting to hear the different techniques of case presentation, since it is very important to give the patient a realistic expectation of the results.
Jolene Welter <welt0081@tc.umn.edu>
- Sunday, November 24, 2002 at 18:05:03 (CST)
Great paper group 8! It is wonderful to be given more information about porcelain veneers because they are becoming so popular in general dentistry. I can not wait to hear your presentation.

Execellent paper. I would have to think that the education of the patient is the biggest key with this type of esthetic restoration. The prep of the tooth certainly doesn't look that difficult, although I have yet to do one. My question would be what if you did absolutely everything to their liking (as far as color matching, shape, ect) and you are satisfied with the final product when it comes back from the lab and when you go to seat it in the mouth they are unhappy with it. What then? Is it technically your fault and you have to eat the cost or do you explain that everything was done how they wanted it and maybe their expectations were too high?

Great paper group #8! You said in your paper that one of the requirements of successful margins is that they must have sufficient strength to withstand the forces of mastication. Does .3 mm of reduction on the gingival portion provide this strength? I would be interested in seeing some data on the longevity of veneers.
Jon Matthes <matt0428@tc.umn.edu>

great paper...I was especially interested by the patients being more interested in color than shape or location.

- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 16:11:37 (CST)
Great Job group 8 your paper was very interesting. I have a patient with 6 Mx veneers and one of them needs to be replaced because it is chipped. How hard will this be to match it to the remaining veneers?
Jennifer LaBerge <luke0035@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 13:25:30 (CST)
Great paper I do say so--can't wait to put it all together in the presentation. This is a topic I bet all of us are a bit nervous about, but we'll all probably do them on a routine basis one day.

Very nice paper. I definetely thought your section about good communication with the lab tech is absolutely crucial for cosmetic veneers. I also thought it was great on how you commented on the impact of digital radiography technology in this advanced area of dentistry.
Mike Henrickson <henr0193@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 08:26:01 (CST)
This was a great paper. I thought that it was interecting when they were saying how digital photography was finding its place in the world of veneers. When we went to Excel dental lab, they showed us how big of a role good digital photography could play in terms of color selection and speed of service.
Jim Healy <heal0052@tc.umn.edu>

Have you found any information about the fracture rates of porcelain veneers (especially ones which wrap over the incisal edge)?
David Gilmer <gilm0069@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 07:36:44 (CST)
Composites and Vaneers are the future of dentistry and probably the present. The information was very good. Nice job.
Steve Graber <grab0054>
- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 07:10:39 (CST)
Great job on the paper! It was great to get more information on porcelain veneers. Having already been asked by most of my friends about porcelain veneers, its nice to have some amo to fire back at them.
Matthew Berg <berg0522@tc.umn.edu>

Great Paper group 8! The information on the materials available for veneers was excellent.
Ben Knutzen <knutzebt@tc.umn.edu>
- Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 06:46:08 (CST)
It was interesting to hear about the mock-up done with composite. I wonder how valuable these are since they probably lack the proper anatomic contour for those teeth in question. Also, because of this fact I would think that they would represent an inaccurate representation of the ability of composite and porcelain veneers to have an ideal esthetic result. Personally, having these done on myself would leave me skeptical of other treatment.
Russ Dylla <rdylla@tc.umn.edu>

If part of your prep extends into the dentin. are veneers absolutely contraindicated
Ben Fenger <feng0032@tc.umn.edu>

Nice to hear more about veneers. I liked the comparison between composite and porcelain. We don't learn enough about veneers.
Patrick J Capp <capp0021@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 18:28:03 (CST)
Nice paper. I'm still wondering....how many veneer cases does a dentist need under her belt before feeling totally confident?
Emily Vober <vobe0003@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 16:28:34 (CST)
Great paper- this topic is really necessary for us to learn about because it seems like they're really increasing in popularity. I really liked the comparisons and contraindications/indications for composite veneers vs. porcelain.
Polly LoCascio <loca0008@tc.umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 14:38:58 (CST)
I am very interested in seeing your presentation. I would like to know what the most common problems are...as in failures. How often do they discolor? How often do margins fail. how often do incisal edges chip...basically how often do you have to replace them?
Nathan Pedersen <pede0328>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 13:59:44 (CST)
Good paper. How long do veneers generally last on average? Is there any problem with discoloration as there is with composite?
Thekla Olson <olso1118@tc.umn.edu>

It is nice to hear about the different options with veneers, I look forward to seeing the case reports.
Stephen Moore <moor0461>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 10:16:50 (CST)
I think this was a great paper. It is very interesting to see the pros and cons of veneers. How often do you begin a veneer preparation and have to end up doing a crown????
Carrie Carlson <lebl0022@umn.edu>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 09:14:58 (CST)
I thought your paper was written well and was very consice. I liked how you compared both the porcelain and composite veneers and gave the pros and cons of each. I am looking forward to your presentation because I missed Dr. Lees last minute presentation on veneer preparations last semester.
Dylan Ascheman <asch0013>
- Wednesday, November 20, 2002 at 08:59:07 (CST)
Say you have a dark colored tooth and you are worried about the dark color being seen through the translucent veneer. Can you reduce a bit more and cover the tooth structure with a light colored composite to lighten the core under the veneer? If so, will this affect bonding?
Brett Knutson <knut0283@umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 22:36:56 (CST)
I liked how you looked at different types of veneers and gave the pros and cons of each. We dont hear much about veneers and it helps to know the indications and limitations of this material. Good job!!
Brent Deragisch <dera0008@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 15:32:56 (CST)
Great Job, group 8. With the ever increasing popularity of esthetic options in dentistry, this information will prove to be very valuable.

It was good to read about how to do composite porcelain veneers.
Grant Raykowski <rayk0002@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 09:49:16 (CST)
I enjoyed the paper and was definately interested in the composite veneers. We haven't had much exposure to these more esthetic shades of composite, and I am hoping to see some picture of examples in the presentation.
Brandon Owen <owen0133@umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 09:39:51 (CST)
Good paper. It will be good to hear about veneers again and get a better appreiation for them, since we will likely be doing them when we are out on our own. I am interesting in the long-term sucess of them.
Heidi Nichols-Johnson <nichols_hi_d@hotmail.com>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 09:39:02 (CST)
Great paper! Did you run across any research on the affect on shade selection when using the specially designed light bulbs for the proper amount of lighting?
Melissa McCartney <mcca0326@tc.umn.edu>
- Tuesday, November 19, 2002 at 07:57:22 (CST)
Fun paper. Is it common for the dentist to do an intraoral composite mock-up on a patient and have the patient request to simply keep the mock-ups instead of proceding with the porcelain veneers? The mock-up should theoretically be far less esthetically pleasing than the final porcelain restoration. If the patient is happy with the way that the composite looks, though, why procede with the far more expensive treatment of porcelain? If the patient is not happy with the look of the mock-up, does this often scare them away from veneers all together?

How do we determine when to use ortho and when to use veneers on a patient with a big-o-diastema?

I am glad that we are going to learn more about the placement of veneers. I am a little nervous that this is the way in which dentistry is shifting and we may never see a case in dental school. I guess I will be spending lots of time in continuing education:)
Katie Lantz <lant0025@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 18, 2002 at 22:44:58 (CST)
Nice job presenting all the information needed to understand the process of placing both composite and porcelain veeners. Wiht the all emphasis placed on estheitic dentistry these days, it is good to get more of these lectures before we grauduate. I enjoyed your section of tools to achieve effective communication and look forward to hearing more about the VDT and digital cosmetic imaging techniques. How realiable are these methods to predict the final outcome?
Devin Croft <crof0017@tc.umn.edu>
- Monday, November 18, 2002 at 22:43:27 (CST)
Very well written paper! I am very interested in this topic because I have been considering placing veneers for my own teeth for a long time. Your paper help me clarify many important concepts. I can't waite for your presentation. Good Job!
Lan Zhou <zhou0039@tc.umn.edu>

Finally- some good information on porcelain. This material, which we will no doubt be using in practice, has been only touched on in school. This paper answered a lot of my questions about veneers.
Sachin Mehta <meht0026@tc.umn.edu>
