| Abstract text: | During their clinical activity, practitioners are trying to restore teeth with various degrees of coronary destruction in order to give back to the patient the functionality and also aesthetics of the affected tooth. Most of the problems the clinicians face are brought forth by teeth with massive coronary destructions or even coronal and root destruction. Lesions which need to be approached in a different way compared to ordinary non-complicated caries. The history of restorative techniques dates back a long time and has remained virtually unchanged for many decades. Almost to this day the techniques for coronal restoration would resume to using the Richmond substitution crown. When it comes to radicular and coronal lesions the techniques have evolved a lot in the past two decades. At the present time, due to the clinical progress, but mainly due to the technical progress of science, the array of methods and materials used in restorations has become considerably more varied offering solutions that range from the simple partial crowns, onlays and cast metal crowns, seated on restored teeth, to the more elaborate ceramic on zirconia oxide or even telecoped crowns. The purpose of this article is to present a summary of our 25 year old experience in restoring teeth using cast metal or preformed carbon fiber, glass-fiber or titanium preformed RDC’s. |
