Welcome to Pro

Beautiful and interesting post that puts the basic one of the more controversial issues. From my humble point of view I think it is extremely difficult to generalize and apply the advantages of one technique over the other in each case. In any case other aspect to be considered are the specific knowledge of the operator, the equipment and…

Gravitating more and more towards composite the last years and probably will be the coming ones. Composite challenges the dentist to be an artist more than ever. A more than worthy player in our great job to restore teeth.

Agree with all
I Would add, ceramic is certainly better for smoker patient, with less stains during Time.
My recent love for composite has grown at the same speed as my skills to manipulate them !

Depend the case. Sometimes I feel more comfortable to do composite before the ceramic approach . Aesthetically speaking I believe that with both you can achieve best results.

I think ceramic is the best choice in terms of lasting, aesthetics and reliability. On the other hand, composite is quick, cheap, modifiable and repairable

When is possible, my choice is composites. Very conservative, easy to fix, can be a quick solution for so many cases, cheapest than ceramics, highly esthetic results can be achieved. Know composites and enjoy the modern dentistry!!!

Ceramic veneer in my opnion is the best choice for long term maintainance .

There is a lot to do with case selection. Some times you cannot substitute them and each are for individual cases. The long term not having the maintain ceramic texture or colour and also their optical properties, make me gravitate them as the first choice. However the minimalism of Composite resins and their ease of repair makes them a worthy contender.

Case depended: today also composites are great aesthetically and performing speaking; )

for multiple symmetric units with full smile yes they are but composites are the best solutions for single ones

Composite is great material in good hands, but for me ceramic is best option in terms of long lasting esthetics

Both composites and ceramics are good materials nowadays. Depending on the treatment plan, the age of the patient, the needs of him/her and the economic opportunities, we can chose one or another.

I think composite
Easy , fast , more conservative, can be repaired
But need more maintenance

I think composite
Easy to apply
More conservative
Faster
Can easy repair
Cheap

Only disadvantage need more maintenance
