title: [The influence of cavity preparation on the width of marginal gaps in Cerec inlays].
abstract: In a study of the influence of the proximal box shape on the marginal fit of Cerec inlays, MOD cavities were prepared in 10 extracted teeth. One box was prepared with sharp edges as recommended by Mörmann (1989), the other was conventionally U-shaped. The width of the marginal gap was measured with a microscope at five different points. The results showed with high significance that the marginal gap of the U-shaped box preparation is smaller. It is recommended to use conventional U-shaped proximal box preparations for Cerec-inlays, too.
