| Summary: | The choice of restorative material in extensive loss of tooth structure because of caries or fracture depends upon the amount of remaining tooth structure that can be utilized for gaining resistance and retention form. The direct restorations are usually not feasible and advisable in teeth where more than half tooth structure is lost. The indirect restorations such as inlays and onlays provide the required resistance and retention forms as well as support for the remaining tooth tissue. Indirect restorations such as ceramic veneers play a major role in esthetic rehabilitation. This article critically reviews applications and materials used for indirect restorations. |
