CERAMAGE – A CERAMO POLYMER RESTORATION TO BE USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO CERAMICS; AS AN INDIRECT RESTORATIVE MATERIAL IN A MINIMALLY INVASIVE COSMETIC DENTISTRY PROTOCOL - A CASE REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of International Dental and Medical Research - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Tooth wear and discoloration is a normal process in the life time of an individual. Severe wear and discoloration can result in cosmetic concern and loss of vertical dimension. These problems can best be treated by giving fixed prosthesis. This case provides the management using the concept of Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry (MICD) with Ceramopolymer as the restorative material. Computer Guided Occlusal Analysis (CGOA) was used for establishing uniform occlusal force distribution.
