Lecture Synopsis Aesthetics is one of the most relevant aspects of our life. We are driven by aesthetics! In dentistry, it is becoming the core business for more and more specialists and general practitioners. Furthermore, aesthetics has been a big challenge throughout the years in our profession across the globe, because a fair treatment also needs to restore tooth function and maintain oral health. Due to their aesthetic potential, ceramics have been the material of choice for the most demanding patients for many years. Unfortunately, ceramics are still associated with many compromises, aggressive preparation, short survival rates, cracks and brittleness. Modern oxide ceramics, especially zirconia, mark the advent of a “new era”. But zirconia is opaque and the aesthetic limitations are clear. Therefore, we should not be blinded by the strengths of just one material. There are other ceramics with similar optical properties as feldspathic ceramics which are far stronger. With lithium disilicate ceramics, we are finally able to restore teeth in a truly conservative manner: The dream of being able to create crowns, partial crowns, onlays and veneers with only one material has become true. Thin veneers and even “non-prep veneers” are a reality today. Other factors that influence the success of ceramic restorations are the proper choice and application of suitable adhesive systems and resin cements. In order to achieve a successful restorative outcome with this kind of materials, it is essential to make a correct diagnosis, to establish an appropriate treatment plan and to follow a pre-determined sequence of steps during the treatment procedure. Because of the reasons already stated, clinical cases will be presented during the lecture, which include everything from the diagnosis and treatment planning to the final incorporation of the restoration. The attendees will be able to see completely documented cases from A to Z.
