Ceramic laminate veneers show a successful esthetic and functional long-term service for their perfect color match, marginal integrity and mechanical properties. The minimum-thickness, ceramic laminate veneers are a conservative and esthetic alternative to reestablish the form, shape and color of anterior teeth. Mechanical behavior and marginal integrity are the major factors that affect the long-term prognosis of any restorations. This clinical study was done to evaluate the clinical performance(in terms of fracture resistance, marginal adaptation, retention, and sensitivity) for two different materials VITA SUPRINITY and e.max CAD used for the fabrication anterior ceramic laminate veneers. Twenty four ceramic laminate veneers were fabricated for maxillary anterior teeth. The patients were divided into two groups according to the material Group 1(control group) fabricated from e.max CAD laminate
