Gold vs. CAD/CAM ceramic partial-crowns: 20-year randomized clinical study
All PCCs and CGPCs available for evaluation showed acceptable results after 20 years, with slight advantages for CGPCs in singular criteria. The present study is the first randomized controlled prospective study revealing that PCCs exhibit similar long-term cumulative survival as CGPCs with only slightly inferior performance and thus can be confidently recommended for long-term clinical application.
