Introduction: In restorative dentistry, hybrid ceramic inlays and onlays have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional all-ceramic restorations, especially in cases requiring a minimally invasive approach and optimal biomechanical compatibility with natural dentition. Nevertheless, their relatively recent introduction warrants further investigation regarding long-term clinical performance, bondingdurability, and wear behavior compared to established ceramic materials. Case report: A 38-year-old female patient presented for the restoration of an extensive carious lesion on the lower right second molar (tooth 46). Thepreoperative radiograph revealed that the tooth was endodontically treated. After clinical and radiographic examination, an indirect restoration using a hybrid ceramic inlay- onlay was planned to maximize the conservation of healthy tooth structure while ensuring adequatemasticatory strength. Discussion: Hybrid ceramics, combining the mechanical strength of ceramics with the flexibility of composites, present attractive properties for restoring posterior teeth by providing durability, aesthetics, and preservation of tooth structure. This unique combination makes them particularly suitable for the restoration of decayed teeth, especially in cases where tooth structure conservation and durability are priorities.
