Abstract

Background and objectives:  Dental veneers are constructed from different materials such as porcelain, pressed ceramic, processed composite, or directly applied composite. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the preferred dental materials for veneers and the knowledge about its procedures by dentists in the Kurdistan region/Erbil city

Methods: To assess general dentists' knowledge and practical use of direct and indirect veneers, a cross-sectional survey was undertaken in March 2022 among all general dentists and different dental specialties in Erbil city. The questionnaire was composed of 16 questions and was organized into knowledge, attitude, and practice sections. Google forms were used to collect responses, which were then statistically examined.

Results: This study revealed respondents were having difficulty in veneer cementations followed by tooth preparations, P value=0.025, hence statistically significant.  The most popular veneer among practitioners were EMAX press and EMAX CAD. In addition, veneer dislodgement was the most common problem faced by dentists followed by tooth sensitivity, p value 0.012 so statistically significant.

Conclusions:  Given the study's limitations, it may be stated that dentists should get good expertise in case selection for veneers, shade matching, optimal preparation processes and designs, and current advancements in veneer materials and adhesive techniques.
