ABSTRACT
The main aim of the dental profession is to maintain the health and functionality of the oral cavity and surrounding structures.
The current trend, and one set to carry on into the near future, is to treat those patients with fewer and smaller carious lesions, at a younger age and by encouraging them to adopt good oral habits. These patients may be treated with esthetic restorations that may not prove sufficiently successful in avoiding repetitive dentistry, and offer qualities that are short-term from the clinical perspective of patient lifetime.
Gold foil restorations should be regarded as an excellent option for restoring these small cavities, one that ensures great and long-lasting results.
