case_images: After a thorough clinical examination, a digital smile design was performed to decide the correct anterior tooth proportions (Figure 2) which includes tooth 14 to tooth 24.
case_images: Wax-up, identical in form from the DSD.

case_images: This design was transferred to a diagnostic wax-up in which the enamel loss could be appreciated by the amount of wax over the cast model (Figure 3).

case_images: Once the wax-up was done, it was digitalized with a model scanner (dental wings 3 series) and printed into a 3D resin model (PASTCure Model 310) (Figure 4), in which a silicone matrix was fabricated for the mock-up technique.
case_images: Mock-up with bisacrylic resin (Luxatemp Star A1, DMG). Notice the shape, which is the same as the DSD planning.

case_images: The first step includes the creation of orientation grooves (868B.314.018, Komet) for the vestibular reduction (Figure 6) through the bisacrylic material.
case_images: Vestibular reduction until the painted grooves are removed; this ensures a controlled reduction for the ceramic space.

case_images: Then, a tapered shape bur was used to complete vestibular reduction (6850.314.016, Komet) until every marked groove was removed (Figure 7). 1,5 mm grooves for the incisal reduction were done, followed by the proximal preparation, which was made with an 8850.315.016 tapered diamond bur, and finally, a diamond disc (952.180 + 310.204, Komet) was necessary for the elimination of the contact point between 11 and 21 tooth due to a misalignment problem.
