Question 1

which dental restoration gives long term durability and requires no tooth reduction for 80% front tooth?

Accepted Answer

Strength: If you mean 80% of the tooth remains then a bonding is a conservative option that can give a good prognosis. Ceramic is stronger but depending on how much tooth is left is less conservative. There is no such thing as a proper restoration that involves no tooth reduction but a trained cosmetic dentist can limit the reduction to the minimum. Don't believe the hype about prepless restorations.
