The development of advanced communication technology has enabled clinicians and ceramists to deliver improved dental care to their patients. This article highlights the importance of communication between the clinician, laboratory technician, and patient for the fabrication and delivery of aesthetic restorations. The use of stone models, photography, shade prescriptions, and occlusal relationships is demonstrated as a means to achieve this objective. These principles are illustrated in the restoration of a patient who presented for aesthetic enhancement of the anterior maxilla.

Advances in adhesive technology and aesthetic dental materials have permitted clinicians to perform conservative preparation of the dentition for inlay/onlay restorations. The use of adhesive indirect procedures provides numerous advantages (e.g., aesthetics, reinforcement, adequate seal) to conventional restorative techniques. This article describes the indications/contraindications and material properties of aesthetic indirect restorations. It also highlights the preparation, bonding, and finishing procedures utilized to achieve an aesthetic indirect resin restoration and demonstrates the techniques with a series of case presentations.

The increased demand for metal-free restorative alternatives has resulted in the proliferation of all-ceramic systems. While these materials can predictably achieve aesthetic results in the anterior, they have traditionally been contraindicated for posterior applications due to the greater stresses present in the region. This article discusses a zirconia/alumina-based ceramic system that has been developed to expand the alternatives for the aesthetic restoration of the dentition. Material properties and considerations for its use in crown restorations, fixed partial dentures, and custom implant abutments are similarly addressed.

One critical factor associated with aesthetics, periodontal health, and the longevity of restorations is the precision of the margins at the periodontal-restorative interface. Improper margins can cause overhangs and overcontouring that may ultimately result in caries, periodontal inflammation and breakdown, and compromised aesthetics. In order to prevent pathology at the restorative-tooth interface, each phase of the aesthetic treatment must be performed with precision and care. This article presents the utilization of an operating microscope to improve the marginal adaptation of all-porcelain restorations.

The ultimate objective of anterior tooth restoration is to achieve an aesthetic appearance that is in harmony with the natural dentition. It is often challenging to replicate the optical characteristics (i.e., transparency and translucency) of a natural tooth without utilizing all-ceramic crown restorations, which may provide enhanced aesthetics and biocompatibility in comparison to metal-based treatment. This article demonstrates the use of all-ceramic technology with a contemporary adhesive procedure as a means to achieve improved aesthetic results in the restoration of the anterior dentition.
