CAD/CAM Restoration Material Guide

Dr. Shivi Gupta

CDOCS Faculty

Dr. Gupta walks through her complete material selection framework across the full flexural strength spectrum — from provisional acrylics and resilient composites through glass ceramics, high-strength ceramics like Emax and Tessera, and into zirconia — helping clinicians understand which material is appropriate for each clinical scenario. This practical decision tree covers anterior crowns, veneers, posterior full coverage, and partial coverage restorations, with clear guidance on when to step up in strength based on occlusal demands, parafunctional habits, and restoration size.
