That number 9 is going to be pain the ass and i rarely have any room now so I asked the doc for more prep on buccal or else i had to bulk it out. The doc is afraid to prep more so i m assuming i might get .5mm thickness for wax up. You guys think Mo 1 or Mo 0 emax ingot can cover up that stump...

Stump shade is A3 and tooth shade is between A1 and A2 i think. I dont see much translucency so definitely taking out HT ingot for my option. Thinking of either using LT or MT on this case. What do you guys think? Press with LT A1 and just stain without cutback? So far i m leaning to this. Or...
