jaw. To find out whether the patient can adapt to the new vertical dimension, it is advised to use provisional restorations for at least 4 weeks. If the patient is not experiencing any muscle tenderness or other TMD after that time, then the final restorations can be inserted.
Consideration of the discussed patient-related factors is crucial for the clinical success and longevity of the restorations, and influences the material selection. Less invasive restorations made out of ceramics or hybrid materials are increasingly replacing conventional restorations. Due to their better esthetics, yet lower material stability, the presented factors have to be evaluated for good clinical outcomes.
