Abstract
This publication describes the effect of thickness and type of material on the resistance fracture of ultra-thin ceramic restoration.
The restorative phase of the treatment should not cause additional damage of the residual tooth structure. Ultrathin restorations
(veneers, onlays , inlays) are considered as an alternative to traditional onlays and complete crowns. the technical aspects required
for the success and the good prognosis of those new restorative design based on the control of tooth preparation with diagnostic
wax-up, provisionalization, and the use of CAD-CAM technology.
