Composite restorations made simple and effective
Direct composite Restorations have been widely used in dentistry. Despite their potential for success with pleasing and swift results, composite resin materials available today are extraordinary systems, which have yet not been generally employed to its full potential. Complicated, unsuitable or outdated techniques and aggressive tooth preparations have prevented composites to reach its ultimate scope, the synergistic capacity of preserving tooth structure; notably that of enamel, which - on its turn - will help increase the longevity of the restoration.
Composites have the remarkable potential for replacing dentin and supporting undermined enamel structure. The author will present a simplified albeit comprehensive and highly aesthetic technique for the optimal handling of dental composites with effortless adaptation and contouring. Useful tips and tricks as well as the easy development of correct and natural dental anatomy will be proposed achieving excellence thought morphological and functional references.
All these steps will culminate in a minimized finishing and occlusal adjustment, maximizing the fun in a seamless and aesthetically pleasing result. This presentation aims to introduce new techniques and concepts to help consistently obtain an excellent, predictable and long lasting restoration, which will culminate in a successful and economical treatment... and a happy patient.
