Reverse spot bonding: a novel technique for provisionalization with immediate dentin sealing

Area of Science:

• Restorative Dentistry
• Dental Materials

Background:

• Partial-coverage posterior ceramic restorations require predictable and stable provisionalization.
• Immediate dentin sealing is a technique used to protect dentin after preparation.

Purpose of the Study:

• To describe a clinical technique for predictable, stable, and efficient provisional restorations.
• To evaluate the combination of immediate dentin sealing with provisionalization for partial-coverage posterior ceramic restorations.

Main Methods:

• A clinical technique integrating immediate dentin sealing with provisional restoration fabrication is detailed.
• The technique focuses on partial-coverage posterior ceramic restorations.

Main Results:

• The described technique facilitates the creation of predictable and stable provisional restorations.
• This method enhances the efficiency of provisionalization for posterior ceramic restorations.

Conclusions:

• The integration of immediate dentin sealing offers a predictable, stable, and efficient approach for provisional restorations.
• This technique is suitable for partial-coverage posterior ceramic restorations.
