Abstract

Statement of problem. Failure of a restoration, where a part of a ceramic inlay and/or a cusp is fractured, is a common clinical problem. The application of fiber-reinforced composites at the tooth-inlay interface may prevent undesirable fractures in dental restorations. There is little information regarding the effect of a fiber-reinforced composite layer on the push-out bond strength of ceramic inlays to tooth structure.
