Smiling is believed to improve overall human health by boosting happiness and endorphin production, which in turn lowers stress and blood pressure. The architecture of the gingival tissue, the shape, colour and proportion of teeth are all crucial factors in the ability to smile. Patient’s self-esteem may be impacted by an uncomfortable smile. Alteration of tooth colour, one of the most important elements of the ideal smile, is a common complaint. A prevalent clinical issue that can compromise function and aesthetics and, in some cases, result in occlusal defect is wearing of the maxillary canine cusps. For better aesthetic outcomes, phonetics and mastication outcomes, anterior guidance – also known as group function or canine guidance – is crucial. Due to their cosmetic appeal, toughness and biocompatibility, since 30 years, veneers prepared as laminates of porcelain have been a reasonable alternative in managing discoloration of teeth present in the anterior jaw portion. Ceramic veneers are basically applied nowadays to rectify the abnormal shape and location of teeth, close gaps between teeth, to remove unsightly composite resin fillings, restore teeth having worn incisors or erosion of teeth, and to conceal or hide teeth discoloration. They are a high-quality substitute for entire tooth covering restorations because there is no need for drastic tooth preparations and for maintaining the natural structure of teeth. This case report presents the rehabilitation of canine guidance and aesthetics with ceramic veneers in a 26 year-old female patient.
