Summary:

Bonded-porcelain and glass-ceramic restorations have the advantage of being a conservative treatment option for the esthetic reconstruction of teeth, requiring significantly less tooth structure removal than conventional crown procedures. However, to be successful with bonded-porcelain procedures, exquisite adhesive technique is required.

This article will cover some clinical tips and tricks that will facilitate the adhesive luting process for inlays, onlays, and veneers.
