Aesthetic partial-coverage dental restorations.

Abstract

The literature on the subject of aesthetic partial-coverage restorations, including laminate veneers, laminate veneer bridges, composite-resin and ceramic inlays and onlays, computer-designed restorations, and etched cast restorations, has continued to expand into the 1990s. Investigations regarding fit, longevity, wear, and microleakage, as well as descriptions of clinical techniques, were well documented world-wide in 1991. The purpose of this review is to discuss some of the more important papers published during the past year.
