Over the past 30 years, the development of adhesive techniques has reduced the biological cost of bonded indirect restorations (in/onlays and veneers). However, the procedures for bonding to dental tissue are still more demanding than those for conventional cemented prostheses. One of the keys to the durability of indirect adhesive restorations is their ability to prevent bacterial plaque from adhering to their surface. With this in mind, this article describes a clinical protocol for obtaining the smoothest possible prosthetic margins, without resorting to conventional finishing and polishing techniques, which are tedious and time-consuming.
