Abstract

Porcelain veneers have been used indiscriminately due to the increase in their popularity arising from social media. These are aesthetic and long-lasting restorations that resemble natural teeth, and are thus mostly chosen for aesthetic restorations. Although esthetics is very important to society, the basic and biological principles of the periodontium must be respected, and not only that, but the adequate technique coming from the dentist is essential in the making esthetic procedure, thus avoiding problems as the periodontal diseases. The objective of this work was to review the literature, periodicals, articles and old and current scientific works, seeking to elucidate the periodontal problems caused by the failures of esthetic facets. The carelessness, such as excess cement, incoherent indications, inadequate preparations, invasion of biological space, incorrect occlusal adjustment and poor follow-up can lead to several periodontal problems, such as gingival inflammation, spontaneous bleeding, halitosis, redness, loss of attachment, gingival recession and even alveolar bone resorption, which can only be corrected by surgery or replacement of veneers, consequently causing numerous damages to patients. The conclusion of this study is that some dentists, out of greed, performs aesthetic procedures without any knowledge about the proper technique and the biological care of the periodontium, thus resulting in numerous problems to the patients arising from their irresponsibility and duty to his profession, which is to preserve and promote health.
