Indications for cuspal coverage

Abstract: Cuspal-coverage restorations are important to preserve the integrity of a weakened tooth against the forces of occlusion. This article discusses the clinical indications for both direct and indirect cuspal-coverage restorations and the evidence supporting their use. Factors that modify a tooth's ability to dissipate normal occlusal forces and the effect cuspal-coverage restorations have on force distribution are examined. Clinical criteria, choice of restorative material and methods for tooth preparation are a… Show more

“…The use of indirect restorations allows great coronal destruction to be rehabilitated with adequate aesthetics and resistance, recovering the masticatory function and protecting dental remnant. 1 Among indirect restoration methods, the CAD/CAM (Computer aided design/Computer aided manufacturing) stands out because it enables obtaining homogeneous restorations with a lower number of structural defects, 2 lower residual stress and shorter laboratory time. 3 The promising features of the CAD/CAM milling method led to the development of a variety of restorative materials that can be used as raw material.…”

“…However, these materials are brittle, time consuming, and more expensive than direct resin composite restorations. 25,26 Controversy exists on the influence of restorative systems on the fracture strength of teeth in posterior regions. Molars and premolars restored using ceramic restorations have the same fracture resistance as intact teeth under axial loading, whereas molars and premolars restored with composite have a lower fracture strength compared with ceramic inlays and intact teeth.…”
