The Ideal Value of Anterior and Posterior Restorations is a practical framework for evaluating the quality of direct and indirect restorations. Rather than focusing only on esthetics, it emphasizes creating restorations that are functional, durable, biologically compatible, and patient-centered.
Ideal Value of Anterior Restorations
The primary goal is to restore the patient’s natural smile while maintaining function and preserving tooth structure.
1. Esthetics
* Natural shade, translucency, and opacity
* Proper surface texture and luster
* Correct tooth shape and symmetry
* Harmonious smile line and gingival contour
2. Function
* Proper anterior guidance
* Stable occlusion
* Correct overbite and overjet
* Clear speech and phonetics
