DENTIN-BONDED ALL-CERAMIC CROWNS: CURRENT STATUS



F.J. TREVOR BURKE, D.D.S., M.D.S., M.SC., F.D.S., M.G.D.S., R.C.S., (EDIN), ALISON J.E. QUALTROUGH, B.CH.D., M.SC., PH.D., F.D.S., M.R.D., R.C.S., (EDIN) and RICHARD W. HALE, B.D.S.

Dentin-bonded all-ceramic crowns employ contemporary techniques to lute the crown to the tooth using a resin luting material and dentin-bonding system. The advantages of these crowns are that they provide good esthetics and fracture resistance and can be used in cases of substantial tooth loss. Their principal disadvantages are that the luting procedure is more time-consuming and that these crowns should not be used where margins are subgingival. Dentin-bonded all-ceramic crowns may be a useful addition to the dentist’s armamentarium, but long-term clinical studies are needed to fully assess their performance.
