Özet: Background: Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) which may be caused by erosion, abrasion, abfraction and attrition are commonly observed in clinic practice. Dental erosion is defined as loss of dental hard tissue due to a chemical irritant that does not involve the influence of bacteria. In case of such lesions progress over time, teeth hypersensitivity and aesthetical problems arise. Objective: The purpose of this case report was to restore erosive lesions on maxillary central teeth with direct composite laminate veneers. Case Description: A 34 years old female patient presented to Istanbul Aydın University Dental Faculty Restorative Dentistry Department because of aesthetic reasons. After clinical examination; erosive defects mainly at the maxillary central teeth and worn incisal edges were diagnosed. As a result of the patient’s anamnesis, it was understood that, the patient consumes lemon regularly every week. The erosive lesions were restored with an adhesive system and a nanofill resin composite. Finishing and polishing procedures were performed immediately. After aesthetical restorations, information is given to the patient about the elimination of the factors which cause erosive lesions. Practical Implications: When clinically evaluated, direct composite laminate veneers are based on the principles of minimally invasive dentistry and reversibility that can be used for the rehabilitation of NCCLs aesthetically
