In everyday dental practice we often face the problem of class II restorations. Large caries create serious problems with regard to obtaining correct contact points, marginal fit (expecially in the gingival area) and good resin polymerisation. In such cases usage of the Sonic-Sys system and inlays seems to be the best solution. The aim of this poster is to present a manual of the Sonic-Sys system, as well as comparison of the Empress II and Sonic-Sys system inlays in class II restorations. The color, marginal fit, contouring and articulating points were evaluated in clinical tests. The surfaces of the preparation were examined in SEM differences between those made by means of Sonic- Sys and standard diamond burs. The results present advantages and disadvantages of both methods. The best choice is to consider the appropriate method after clinical examination and treatment planning in each individual case.
