MARGINAL FIT CONFIGURATION IN DENTAL CERAMICS - An Oveview

The smile is one of the most appealing aspects of the human face and is considered to be the very image of the soul.An esthetically pleasing appearance of teeth is the best asset for a good smile. Ceramic restorations because of their natural translucency and tooth like color provide excellent esthetics and are virtually indistinguishable from the adjacent natural dentition. Full veneer ceramic crowns are very successful in this aspect because by covering the entire tooth they can totally mask the previous condition to create a new appearance. Dr. Charles Land introduced one of the earliest forms of ceramic crowns in 1903. Then the first metal-ceramic crown was described by Brecker in 1956.
