As dentistry continues to evolve, new technologies and materials are continually being offered to the dental profession. Throughout the years restorative trends and techniques have come and gone. Some material developments have transformed the face of esthetic dentistry, while other initial concepts have already phased out and disappeared. Today, all-ceramic restorations continue to grow in the area of restorative dentistry, from pressed-ceramic techniques and materials to the growing use of zirconia, and new materials that can be created from CAD/CAM technology. This article will explore new uses for the all-ceramic material known as lithium disilicate, and the use of a digital format to design and process this material in new and exciting ways. An overview of the material as well as unique clinical procedures will be presented.
随着牙科不断发展，新技术和材料不断涌现并应用于牙科领域。多年来，修复趋势和技术不断更迭。一些材料的发展改变了美学牙科的面貌，而其他一些最初的概念已经逐步淘汰并消失。如今，全瓷修复体在修复牙科领域持续发展，从压铸陶瓷技术和材料到氧化锆的日益广泛应用，以及可通过计算机辅助设计/计算机辅助制造（CAD/CAM）技术制作的新材料。本文将探讨一种名为二硅酸锂的全瓷材料的新用途，以及如何以新颖且令人兴奋的方式利用数字格式来设计和加工这种材料。文中将对该材料以及独特的临床操作进行概述。
