- Ouellet, David, "Using Rembrandt Veneers in my Daily Practice,
DentalTown,
May 2003.
This article describes two case studies where Rembrandt Veneers made of Cerinate
Porcelain are used with little to no tooth preparation. Both cases were examples
when it is necessary or not necessary to modify (prepare) teeth"standard veneer
replacement and cuspid-guided occlusion with bonded porcelain. The end result
showed a dramatic improvement in proportion and tooth positioning in Case 1.
After an 11-year recall, the veneers in Case 2 showed no debonding and complete
patient satisfaction.
- CRA Newsletter, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2003.
This study focused on materials used for metal-free, 3-unit prostheses. One of the
materials in the evaluation was Cerinate Pressable. It received a CRA excellent rating
in the "Esthetic Potential" category.

Dentistry Today, April 2003.
This article discusses the benefits of porcelain veneers that do not require the
removal of sensitive tooth structure and produce no post-operative sensitivity. The
three case reports used Rembrandt® Veneers made of Cerinate® Porcelain and all
required no tooth reduction. Each case report used Rembrandt Veneers for different
restoration purposes; Case 1"Esthetic smile improvement (linguoverted with
discolored restorations, Case 2"Instant orthodontics, and Case 3"esthetic smile
improvement (bruxism).
- Ibsen, Robert, "Conservative Treatment Provides Outstanding Long-Term Results,"
DentalTown, March 2003.
This case study is about the use of Rembrandt® Veneers made of Cerinate®
Porcelain and a resin labial bridge/splint. The patient had idiopathic periodontosis
with mobile teeth. The purpose for the treatment choice was a functional, esthetic
restoration that would prolong tooth structure. After a 13-year recall, functionality
had been maintained with an optimistic prognosis for the patient"s teeth.

20-Year Case Study," Contemporary Esthetics and Restorative Practice, Vol. 6, No. 12,
December 2002.
The study reviewed an initial veneer placement of Cerinate Veneers with
Ultra-Bond in 1985 and then evaluated the veneers after 17 years when they
were replaced due to esthetic wear. The 17-year old case showed no evidence of
microleakage, no evidence of gingival recession, and no cracks or fractures.
- Ibsen, Robert, "Bonding Cerinate Veneers to Existing PFM Crowns,"
Dental Town,
October 2002.
This
case report discussed techniques and products used for bonding Cerinate
Porcelain Veneers to three cosmetically-compromised PFM crowns. The
case report also discussed post placement, periodontal health, and oral
hygiene maintenance"tasks made easier because the veneer margins did
not extend subgingivally.
- Strassler, H.E. and Weiner, S., "Long Term Clinical Evaluation of
Etched Porcelain
Veneers," Journal of Dental Research, 2001.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance and durability of
anterior etched porcelain veneers. The study population consisted of 33 patients
with discolored or malpositioned teeth. A total of 183 Cerinate® veneers were placed
on the enamel facial surfaces of maxillary and mandibular anteriors and premolars.
Patients were recalled for collection of long-term data at periods of 120 months "
190 months with a mean of 149.5 months 12.5 years. There was 100% retention of
the veneers over the period of this study. Over the duration of this study, of the
patients that were able to be recalled, 94% of the restorations were clinically
successful. One hundred seventy-two of one hundred eighty-three placed veneers
remained with only 11 veneers needing replacement due to severe trauma. Results
indicate that Cerinate porcelain veneers cemented with Ultra-Bond were highly
successful over the period of this study.

Journal of
Esthetic Dentistry, Vol. 4, 1992: 9-11.
Two modalities of treatment, with orthodontics and porcelain veneer placement
with Ultra-Bond, were combined to achieve an excellent esthetic effect and eliminated
a long-lasting cosmetic problem.
- Nash, R.W., "Minimal Preparation as an Option with Porcelain Veneers,"
Dentistry
Today, Vol. 11, Sept. 1992.
A technique in minimal preparation to preserve tooth structure achieved quality
aesthetic results using Ultra-Bond with Cerinate Porcelain veneers.
