Materials and Methods: This single-cohort retrospective series did not include a conventional control group. A total of 201 veneers (Prettau\u00ae Skin, 5Y-TZP zirconia) were placed in the anterior maxilla and mandible. Veneers were air-abraded with 50 \u00b5m Al2O3 (0.25 MPa, ~10 mm, 20 s) and bonded using an MDP-containing adhesive (Tokuyama Bond, Tokuyama Dental, Japan) and dual-cure resin cement (Estecem II, Tokuyama Dental, Japan) following enamel etching with 37% H3PO4 (Etching Gel, Cerkamed, Poland). Clinical performance was assessed using the modified FDI criteria after two years. Results: At 24 months, no debonding events were recorded. The survival rate was 99.5% (95% CI: 97.3\u201399.9). Fracture rate was 0.5% (95% CI: 0.1\u20132.8). Most veneers received \u201cvery good\u201d scores for surface luster (81.6%, 95% CI: 75.6\u201386.4), color match (96.0%, 95% CI: 92.0\u201398.0), marginal adaptation (84.1%, 95% CI: 78.3\u201388.6), and anatomical form (100%, 95% CI: 98.1\u2013100). Periodontal response was rated as \u201cvery good\u201d or \u201cgood\u201d in 90.0% (95% CI: 85.4\u201393.4) of cases. Patient satisfaction remained consistently high (100%, 95% CI: 98.1\u2013100). Conclusions: Ultra-thin, no-prep Prettau\u00ae Skin zirconia veneers show favorable short-term clinical outcomes, offering excellent esthetic results, mechanical stability, and biological compatibility. These findings support their use as a minimally invasive option in anterior restorative dentistry. However, further long-term studies are needed to confirm their durability and compare outcomes with conventional veneer techniques.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/bioengineering12090976","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,16]],"date-time":"2025-09-16T08:56:46Z","timestamp":1758013006000},"page":"976","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Two-Year Clinical Performance of Ultra-Thin No-Prep Veneers from 5Y-TZP Zirconia: A Retrospective Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Katarzyna","family":"Taraszkiewicz-Sulik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, Medical University of Bia\u0142ystok, 15-089 Bialystok, Poland"},{"name":"Bio Dental Clinic Dr. Katarzyna Taraszkiewicz-Sulik, DDS, PhD, General Partnership\u2014Private Practice, 15-453 Bialystok, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-4613-383X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patryk","family":"Wi\u015bniewski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontal and Oral Mucosa Diseases, Medical University of Bia\u0142ystok, 15-089 Bialystok, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Edyta","family":"Cywoniuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bio Dental Clinic Dr. Katarzyna Taraszkiewicz-Sulik, DDS, PhD, General Partnership\u2014Private Practice, 15-453 Bialystok, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Teresa","family":"Sierpi\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, Medical University of Bia\u0142ystok, 15-089 Bialystok, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"179","DOI":"10.1016\/j.prosdent.2021.09.023","article-title":"A bibliometric analysis of minimally invasive dentistry: A review of the literature from 1994 to 2021","volume":"130","author":"Alam","year":"2023","journal-title":"J.
