title: Inlay fixed partial denture as a conservative approach for restoring posterior missing teeth: a clinical report.
abstract: Inlay fixed partial dentures luted by use of adhesive procedures offer a clinical alternative for the restoration of single missing posterior teeth. The introduction of ceromers and fiber-reinforced composites and the continuous improvement of adhesive systems and luting agents make this type of restoration possible, offering good aesthetic and functional results. The procedure is minimally invasive and conservative. This clinical report reviews the factors influencing the diagnosis and the clinical indications for an inlay fixed partial denture. In addition, a patient treatment is presented to illustrate the clinical procedures involved.
