title: Cuspal coverage with resin-bonded metal onlays.
abstract: The use of resin-bonded onlays as a means of cuspal coverage is described with reference to two clinical cases. One distinct feature of this technique is the minimal tooth preparation required compared with that needed for a conventional crown or onlay. Conservation of the already compromised tooth tissue is thus achieved.
