Ceramic and metal materials are commonly used to restore tooth tissue. However, metal-free alternatives offer superior aesthetics and adaptability. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in patients’ preference for non-metallic restorations, often due to concerns about metal hypersensitivity or aesthetic preferences. This study aims to increase the effectiveness of treating patients with dental tissue defects through the use of ceramic restorations. A total of 60 patients were treated using metal-free restorations fabricated through pressing and milling techniques, with each method applied to a group of 30 patients. Several evaluation criteria were used to evaluate the results, including restoration fit accuracy, color compatibility, cementation stability, and the presence of chipping within the oral cavity. Statistical analysis was performed to compare both groups. The findings showed that milled restorations demonstrated superior adhesion to dental tissues and better color matching. Therefore, metal-free restorations are highly recommended for prosthetic rehabilitation of hard dental tissues.
