Summary:
Bonded-porcelain and glass-ceramic restorations have the advantage of being a conservative treatment option for the esthetic reconstruction of teeth, requiring significantly less tooth structure removal than conventional crown procedures. However, to be successful with bonded-porcelain procedures, exquisite adhesive technique is required. Bonding porcelain restorations can be problematic and time consuming, which has caused many dentists to avoid using bonded-ceramic restorations. This article will cover some clinical tips and tricks that will facilitate the adhesive luting process for inlays, onlays, and veneers.

CAD/CAM Solutions for Minimally Invasive All-Ceramic Rehabilitation of Extended Erosive Lesions
Dental erosion is a global health problem that can lead to significant functional and esthetic impairments of the affected patients. Treatment of sever cases with augmented loss of the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) represents a challenge for both the dental team and the patient. CAD/CAM technology was used in the presented case to analyze the inter-occlusal space. The case report documents a practical, digital approach and discusses the advantages related to treatment time, ease of treatment, and predictability.
