Abstract

The minimally invasive bridges are considered a common substitute for conventional fixed prosthesis because require a minimal teeth preparation, protection of the pulp vitality and less periodontal irritation. Modern materials currently available on the domain - ceramic systems or zirconium dioxide-allow the realization of such prosthetic constructions, ensuring sufficient strength and longevity over time. The purpose of this article is to describe clinical procedures related to the placement of minimally invasive bridge inlay-retained with a zirconia framework, subsequently veneered with ceramic. Digital CAD-CAM technology greatly reduces working time and allows a high-precision prosthetic device. All these advantages make our therapeutic solution a viable option for restoring the continuity of the dental arch in the posterior area.
