The paper presents a tooth preparation technique called "Inoue & Zanetti Dental Preparation Technique". This technique was inspired in the confection of orientation sulci. A special diamond burs points was created (The Inoue/Zanetti/Feltrin diamond points kit - KG - Sorensen- ref. 6727) specific for the obtainment of the desired amount of wear, for each kind of tooth preparation. Cutting rotatory instruments were developed in order to demand less dental waste without damage in the periodontal tissues. The kit enables the operator to confect aesthetic restorations with the amount of wear and marginal endings of 1350, specific for metalloceramic crowns in anterior teeth..
