Popis: Zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) has recently been introduced in an effort to improve the mechanical properties of glass-ceramic materials. In vitro evaluations suggest that this class of material has high flexural strength and exhibits satisfactory adhesion to resin cement and wear resistance. Since few clinical reports of this novel material are currently available, the aim of this case report is to describe clinical perceptions regarding the handling and performance of ZLS ceramics when used for laminate veneers on the maxillary incisors.
