Utilizing dental CAD/CAM systems, chairside treatments allow patients to be treated within one day without the need for an intermediate dental laboratory. With this procedure, it is also essential to ensure a sufficient marginal fit of the restoration. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of the milling strategy on the marginal fit of CAD/CAM-fabricated lithium disilicate crowns. For this purpose, 10 crowns were fabricated from each of the materials IPS e.max CAD and Celtra Duo using the fastest and finest available milling strategy. The accuracy of the marginal fit of the 40 crowns was examined using the industrial scanner ATOS Triple Scan and the associated software using the triple scan protocol. In a comparison of the milling processes, the restorations fabricated using the finest process always exhibited a better marginal fit, with mean deviations of 87 μm and 146 μm for IPS e.max CAD and 111 μm and 118 μm for Celtra Duo. The difference was only statistically significant for the crowns made of IPS e.max CAD (p = 0.008). All mean deviations determined were below the clinically acceptable marginal gap values (150 μm). Both materials can be used for chairside-fabricated crowns; however, choosing the faster milling strategy leads to higher marginal discrepancies.
