The continuous progression in the field of ceramics in dentistry lead to a revolution in conservative dental treatment. This is offered the clinicians various solutions for many situations that need esthetic dental improvement. Laminate veneers considered highly functional and esthetically indirect restoratives that treat unaesthetic anterior teeth with minimally invasive preparation. Cases needed for correction of crown length and width, correction of minor malformations of anterior teeth, closure of spacing\ diastema, masking some intrinsic discoloration; e.g. Tetracycline stain and treatment of dental fluorosis are examples for solutions varieties that can be achieved when using ceramic laminate veneers. The more improvement in ceramic material, adhesive luting cement and preparation techniques offer many options for clinicians. The Success of clinical veneer cases relays to a great extent on a proper knowledge, and well training of both operator and technician. These can be achieved through more focusing on the recent trends in ceramic materials, preparation techniques and application of adhesive luting cement. The following review article is searching for the current state of the art of dental laminate veneers including veneers material, preparation modalities, and applications techniques.
