title: Avoiding failures during insertion of all-ceramic restorations.
abstract: The seating, cementing, and finishing of all-ceramic restorations can be a very demanding operation. All steps must be accomplished well in order to produce a clinically acceptable result. Successful placement of all-ceramic restorations can result in an immediate reward for both the patient and the operator; however, only with very careful consideration of occlusion, laboratory work, and chairside seating and finishing can a successful long-term result be realized.
