Smile harmony can be upset by abnormalities like peg-shaped lateral incisors, which leads patients to look for the least invasive yet effective cosmetic procedures. Direct composite veneers are a conservative way to improve your appearance without requiring a lot of dental preparation. This research investigates clinical application, material improvements, and overall patient satisfaction of direct composite veneers in the context of esthetic smile rehabilitation. The outcomes of recent research on direct composite veneers, with an emphasis on minimally invasive cosmetic rehabilitation methods, are summarized in this narrative overview of the literature. Through extensive searches in PubMed, Scopus, and ScienceDirect, studies were chosen using keywords like \"direct composite veneers,\" \"esthetic restoration,\" and \"minimally invasive dentistry.\" The inclusion of articles was determined by their applicability to patient satisfaction, clinical results, and composite material improvements. According to the review, direct composite veneers are a practical, affordable, and reversible substitute for porcelain veneers. Benefits include instant results, little tooth preparation, and the use of multilayer composite procedures to provide natural-looking results. Nevertheless, drawbacks like staining vulnerability, decreased durability, and upkeep needs highlight the necessity of cautious patient selection. Direct composite veneers are becoming more and more feasible for long-term aesthetic solutions because to recent developments in composite resins, such as nanohybrid and nanofilled technologies, which have improved their polishability, durability, and color stability. Direct composite veneers are a good choice for those looking for a customizable, minimally intrusive method of improving the appearance of their smiles. Composite veneers are a useful and versatile option for improving appearance, even though they could need upkeep over time. To increase their lifetime and expand their use in cosmetic dentistry, more study on material advancements is necessary.</p>","PeriodicalId":18709,"journal":{"name":"Minerva dental and oral science","volume":" ","pages":"266-272"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143572989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This narrative review explores the dentist's role in the detection, documentation, and medico-legal management of such injuries, particularly in the context of suspected abuse or neglect. A narrative review of relevant literature, clinical guidelines, and forensic protocols was conducted. Sources were selected based on their relevance to dental diagnosis, trauma recognition, medico-legal obligations, and interdisciplinary collaboration in suspected abuse cases. Certain injury patterns - such as contusions, lacerations, avulsions, and frenulum tears - especially in protected anatomical areas or with incongruent patient histories, may suggest inflicted trauma. Comprehensive clinical and photographic documentation is essential for legal and protective proceedings. Dentists must be familiar with mandatory reporting laws and recognize their legal responsibilities. Forensic odontologists contribute valuable expertise by providing objective injury analysis and supporting legal investigations. Multidisciplinary collaboration with pediatricians, general physicians, legal authorities, and social workers enhances case management and victim protection. Dentists have a dual responsibility: providing care and safeguarding vulnerable individuals. Strengthening dental education in forensic odontology, trauma-informed care, and medico-legal procedures is essential to prepare practitioners for this role.
