  • Title: [The use of modern ceramics for inlays and onlays].
    Author: Dumfahrt H, Schäffer H, Manhartsberger C.
    Journal: Z Stomatol; 1989 Jun; 86(4):223-32. PubMed ID: 2700408.
    Abstract:
    If ceramic inlays and onlays are considered in restorative work, some operations which, more than in other areas of dental engineering, decide upon the success or failure should be given special attention. During the preparation of ceramic inlays care should be taken to produce well rounded rather than rectangular edges approximally. In the case of onlays there should ideally be a smooth circular step rounded axially with a sharp-edged near-rectangular interface with the non-ground tooth. Ceramic inlays and onlays are best inserted with the adhesive technique, which provides for an improved strength of the ceramic material, an adequate marginal adaptation and a satisfactory cosmetic appearance. As long-term results are not yet available, the use of ceramic inlays and onlays is still experimental.
