[Clinical study comparing at 5 years a ceramic and a ceromer used for making esthetic inlays].
Thirty-six inlays, equally divided between a vitro ceramic and a composite resin, were bonded in pair, on the same type of teeth in fifteen patients. They were followed for a mean period of 60 months. The results showed that both materials were clinically acceptable for restoring posterior teeth, even though ceramic yielded better results concerning colour match.
