Abstract

With the advent of adhesive dentistry, tooth preparation can be minimally invasive. An optimal adhesion to the dental tissues is a requirement. Rubberdam isolation, using a gold standard adhesive and bonding to freshly prepared dentin are all factors that improve the adhesion to tooth tissue. For non-retentive restorations, indirect composite and glass-ceramic materials are suitable. To date, several studies have shown a high survival rate of indirect adhesive restorations. The adage "if you can isolate the tooth, you can preserve it" may guide the choice of starting an adhesive procedure.
