The direct-indirect technique for composite resin veneer fabrication brings together many of the distinct advantages of the direct and indirect techniques.
A direct-indirect restoration is one in which the composite resin is sculpted directlyon the tooth structure without previous adhesive preparation, light activated, removed from the tooth, heat tempered, finished and polished extraorally, and finally adhered indirectly in the mouth in a single appointment.
The resulting restoration exhibits improved mechanical properties, excellent esthetics, and unrivaled marginal adaptation and polishing.
