  • Title: Collarless metal ceramic restorations to obscure the umbrella effect.
    Author: Afroz S, Chand P.
    Journal: Indian J Dent Res; 2010; 21(4):600-2. PubMed ID: 21187633.
    Abstract:
    Esthetics with porcelain fused to metal restoration in the anterior region can be adversely affected due to the inadequate teeth preparations and design of the prosthesis. We presented here a case report where esthetics was compromised due to darkening of the interdental papilla and marginal gingival and overcontoured restorations in relation to porcelain fused to metal restorations. Good esthetic results were obtained by using basic principles of tooth preparation and using collarless metal ceramic restorations.
