Regardless of the tooth restoration technique used, the original tooth morphology always serves as the ideal guide for replication. Intact natural tooth morphology is an indisputable reference point in dentistry, playing a crucial role in both form and function, especially for posterior teeth. Previously, for milled restorations, the occlusal morphology was derived from a library of standard morphologies. However, contemporary dentistry offers the biogeneric tooth model, an innovative tool that ensures respect for both morphology and occlusion in each clinical situation. It utilizes a computer-controlled matching process, referencing the affected tooth to the opposite, adjacent, or contralateral tooth. This paper aims to highlight the contribution of the biogeneric tool by comparing two distinct clinical scenarios: one with and one without the biogeneric tool. The first clinical report details an older case of an endocrown restoration using the virtual library of morphologies. The second clinical report details the application of the biogeneric tool and demonstrates the resulting respected morphology. A step-by-step protocol, from design to cementation, is described for both restoration cases.
