THE RESIN COATING METHOD USING A MICROSCOPE AND NEW POLYMERIC MATERIALS

Abstract

Various methods are available for crown restorations, including direct restoration with composite resin or indirect restoration with ceramic or metal. However, there can be problems with the strength of the material or with marginal secondary caries due to poor fit along the restoration margin, so that the risk-benefit balance is therefore an issue. The author has achieved favorable clinical outcomes with long-term stability through the use of the resin coating method using a microscope and new polymeric materials. Here, I present this technique and report a clinical case.
