Abstract
Objective: The present paper aims to demonstrate the incorporation of the double monolithic protocol (DMP) into a chairside digital workflow to reproduce the fluorescence properties of natural teeth with chairside monolithic restorations when exposed to different light sources.
Clinical considerations: A female patient reporting dissatisfaction with her upper anterior teeth was rehabilitated using seven veneers and a three-element bridge. The DMP was applied to the bridge, which consisted of a primary lithium disilicate framework to which leucite-reinforced glass ceramic veneers were cemented. The fluorescence of the different substrates and ceramic restorations was evaluated throughout the rehabilitation process, under 365 and 405 nm light.
Conclusions: The DMP allows chairside procedures to be optimized by achieving predictable, mechanically resistant, and esthetic restorations.
Clinical significance: The DMP is a new chairside solution for developing ceramic restorations with optimal esthetics and combined mechanical properties, eliminating the need for sintering or glazing procedures.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry (JERD) is the longest standing peer-reviewed journal devoted solely to advancing the knowledge and practice of esthetic dentistry. Its goal is to provide the very latest evidence-based information in the realm of contemporary interdisciplinary esthetic dentistry through high quality clinical papers, sound research reports and educational features.
The range of topics covered in the journal includes:
- Interdisciplinary esthetic concepts
- Implants
- Conservative adhesive restorations
- Tooth Whitening
- Prosthodontic materials and techniques
- Dental materials
- Orthodontic, periodontal and endodontic esthetics
- Esthetics related research
