The aim of this study was to measure the satisfaction of patients with respect to the aesthetics of veneer restorations (VRs) and to identify potential factors influencing their satisfaction.
One hundred and eighty VRs of three different types (direct composite, indirect composite and porcelain) were placed on anterior teeth. Patients were asked to fill in questionnaires at baseline and at one- and two-year recalls.
At baseline the overall satisfaction was 76%, after two years this was 78%. The variable 'type of VR' was the only factor measured that had a significant influence on the satisfaction of the patient. At the two-year evaluation patients with porcelain VRs were more satisfied than those with direct composite VRs (P < 0.05).
From the results of this study it is concluded that differences in clinical procedures had no effect on satisfaction. Also the number of VRs had not influenced the level of satisfaction. After two years a significant difference was observed for the variable 'type of VR', with the best results for porcelain.
本研究旨在衡量患者对贴面修复体（VR）美学效果的满意度，并确定影响其满意度的潜在因素。
将180个三种不同类型（直接复合树脂、间接复合树脂和瓷质）的VR放置在前牙上。要求患者在基线时以及一年和两年回访时填写问卷。
基线时总体满意度为76%，两年后为78%。“VR类型”变量是所测量的唯一对患者满意度有显著影响的因素。在两年评估时，瓷质VR患者比直接复合树脂VR患者更满意（P < 0.05）。
从本研究结果得出，临床操作差异对满意度没有影响。VR的数量也未影响满意度水平。两年后观察到“VR类型”变量存在显著差异，瓷质的效果最佳。
