Abstract

Dental inlays are essential restorative options for preserving damaged teeth. Among the various materials available, cast metal and composite inlays stand out for their unique properties. This article delves into the characteristics, clinical applications, advantages, and disadvantages of cast metal and composite inlays. Through a comparative analysis, we aim to provide a comprehensive comparision between cast metal and composite inlay and why we should choose one over the other [2].
