Clinical Outcome of Indirect Bonded Porcelain Restoration Versus Full-Coverage Crown on Endodontically Treated Teeth in Posterior Areas: A Systematic Review

Mai M Alhamdan et al. Cureus. .

Abstract

The significant loss of tooth structure that occurs after dental caries and endodontic therapy is a common clinical challenge. Several methods were discussed in the literature to treat badly damaged teeth. This systematic review aims to compare the clinical outcomes of partial indirect bonded porcelain restorations to full-coverage crowns of endodontically treated teeth in posterior areas. The study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. Data included in the review were identified through bibliographic research on electronic databases (PubMed/Medline, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science). The strategy was applied by searching for randomized clinical trials (RCTs), cohort studies, and case-control studies using keywords (partial indirect bonded porcelain restoration, partial indirect bonded restoration, inlay and onlay, full convergent crown, and ceramic crown). As a result of a literature search through selected databases using the keywords, 88,421 papers were identified. A total of 671 articles were related and screened for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Four hundred and eighty-two articles that did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded. A total of 189 full-text papers were assessed, and 20 articles were included in this study. Nineteen cohort studies and one case-control study were included and assessed in this review. This study concludes that both full-coverage crowns and partial indirect bonded restorations demonstrate comparable survival rates. However, limited studies exist regarding partial indirect bonded restorations on endodontically treated teeth, indicating the need for further updated studies.

Keywords: ceramic crown; full converge crown; inlay and onlay; partial indirect bonded porcelain restoration; partial indirect bonded restoration.
