This treatment alternative is a less conservative approach in restoring a tooth that has reached a level of decay that cannot be restored with a more conservative option. This type of restoration may also be used to restore full mouths when the patient has misalignment, stained, fractured teeth and loss of vertical dimension (reduced bite) and occlusion (improper bite). Full mouth reconstructions with this type of restoration provide the patient with a new aesthetic profile with the correct biologic occlusion (bite). Additional materials for these types of restorations include: gold with porcelain, full cast in gold and or Inlay/Onlay in gold, CapTek (Traditional Dentistry). All ceramic Restorations/Crowns,
Procera, Cerec In-Lab, IPS Empress, Cercon, Wol-Ceram and BelleGlass (composite) among others.
