Contemporary Ceramic Restorations in 2026

– Treatment planning and case setup
– Materials and clinical indications for conservative (minimal or no-preparation) techniques for anterior bonded porcelain restorations
– Clinical indications for standard and more extensive porcelain veneer cases where predominantly dentin is exposed
– Clinical indications, materials, and techniques for inlays, onlays, and vonlays
– New glass ceramics: lithium disilicates and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicates
– Clinical situations and materials in which a crown is indicated
– Layered zirconia-based ceramics – problem solving for porcelain chipping
– High “cubic-phase” zirconia monolithic systems
– State-of-the-art adhesion, cements, and cementation.
