Minimally invasive restorations are more expensive than conventional restorations, but this pays off. Due to the excellent material properties of the modern ceramics combined with the exceptionally strong adhesive bonding, the ceramic restorations are particularly long-lasting even with ultra-thin processing and even weakened teeth.
Many inlays and veneers have been in the mouth of the patients for over 15 years and are still completely intact. With good dental care, a perfectly designed inlay or veneer can also last longer.
