Lithium-disilicate has long been a reliable standard for indirect restorations, with its superb dimensional stability and precision finishing. In particular with the advancement of minimally invasive restorations and no-preparation veneers, Lithium-discilicate opens up great possibilities, but the cementation technique and material becomes even more critical for the final outcomes. The evolution of cements and cementation techniques can therefore be a key parametre in minimally invasive restorations. Further to the cement mechanical properties and influence in the aesthetics, the addition of bio-interactive or regenerative qualities can significantly increase the options for the clinician.

Zirconia is "rising star" in the age of digital workflow, as its mechanical properties but also its suitability for milling to full contour smaller or larger restorations make it a convenient and reliable choice in modern digital prosthodontics. Versatile in its applications, Zirconia can be either milled as monolithic or layered, while such prostheses can be either bonded or conventionally cemented. As the indications and options increase, it is important to understand the implications of each pathway and use the optimal protocol for clinical success!
