ABSTRACT
Severe tooth wear is related to substantial loss of tooth structure, with dentin exposure and significant loss (≥1/3) of the clinical crown. The objective of this systematic review was to summarize and analyze the scientific evidence regarding the mechanical performance of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) composite resin and CAD/CAM lithium disilicate ceramic occlusal veneers, in terms of fatigue and fracture resistance, on severely worn posterior teeth. Currently, occlusal veneers are an alternative for treating worn posterior teeth. Although scientific evidence demonstrates the good performance of lithium disilicate occlusal veneers, there are less brittle materials with a modulus of elasticity more similar to dentin than ceramics, such as resin CAD/CAM blocks. Therefore, it is important to identify which type of material is best for restoring teeth with occlusal wear defects and which material can provide better clinical performance. This review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane, OpenGrey, Redalyc, DSpace, and Grey Literature Report databases was conducted and supplemented by a manual search, with no time or language limitations, until January 2022. We aimed to identify studies evaluating the fatigue and fracture resistance of CAD/CAM composite resin and ceramic occlusal veneers. The quality of the full-text articles was evaluated according to the modified Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) criteria for in vitro studies, and 400 articles were initially identified. After removing duplicates and applying the selection criteria, 6 studies were included in the review. The results demonstrated that the mechanical performance of CAD/CAM composite resin occlusal veneers is comparable to that of CAD/CAM lithium disilicate occlusal veneers in terms of fatigue and fracture resistance.
