Prosthetic rehabilitation of the upper arch using pressed layered and monolithic ceramics- technical steps

Abstract

Aims and objectives: the present paper wants to highlight the essential parameters to be considered during the technical steps of the manufacturing process of pressed monolithic and layered full ceramic pressed crowns. Material and method: a complex clinical case was taken in consideration. The patient presented different shades of abutments that required different technical approaches for obtaining the expected aesthetic effects. Specific manufacturing steps were conducted. Results: highly aesthetic and functional reconstructions were obtained that fulfilled the patients demands.
