Abstract

Restoring complex cases can be very challenging for most clinicians in their daily practice.

Traditional layering techniques for restoring anterior class IV restorations and peg laterals require training and skills together with long clinic times. The restoration of posteriors with deep cavities and fragile cusps requires experience and technique when planning cusp coverage in order to have higher longevity of the restorations and avoid premature failures.

And finally, restoring pathological tooth wear with free-hand direct restorations may require precision and planning as this technique often gives unpredictable results with possible re-works and unhappy patients.

The aim of this course is to present a detailed series of easy and predictable techniques for anterior and posterior restorations that will enable clinicians to create first-class aesthetics direct restorations but in a quicker and more affordable way. Together with a simplified polishing technique and a detailed surface characterization you can achieve the perfect reflection of the light for restorations as aesthetic as indirect ones an with a reduced and cost-efficient inventory.

Dr. Moretto will provide a logical, simplified, detailed and practical approach to rebuild different anterior and posterior cavities using direct composite resin restorations.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn how to create highly esthetic anterior and posterior restorations on easy and predictable way
  • Fundamentals of colours
  • Optimalization of shade selection
  • Selection of appropriate resin composite for each cavity design and which features they should have
  • Treatment of wear cases
  • Detailed step by step for cusp reduction and optimized restoration for big cavities with fragile walls
  • Clinical cases detailing the entire procedure for different anterior restorations
  • Clinical cases detailing the entire procedure for different posterior restorations
