Advances in Composites and “Smart” Restorative Materials

Advances in Composites and “Smart” Restorative Materials is organized by Viva Learning™ LLC.

Release Date: 12/20/17
Expiration Date: 12/20/27

Description:
In this webinar, Dr. Lowe will discuss and demonstrate techniques to simplify placement of direct composites utilizing the latest advances in restorative dental materials.

The challenges of placing anterior and posterior restorations including proximal contact and contour, and soft tissue management will also be discussed.

What’s new in composite restorative technologies? Learn more about “smart” composites with bioactive attributes that protect the microenvironment around restorative margins making them less susceptible to acid attack and recurrent decay.

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this webinar the participant will have learned:
• A simple, reproducible technique to create accurate and aesthetic tooth morphology in composite resin.
• How sectional matrix can accurately reproduce contact and contour for proximal surfaces.
• How to manage soft tissue issues when placing composite resins.
• About new innovations in dentistry that are advancing the technology of restorative materials and how they react in the oral environment.
• Finishing and polishing techniques that create natural surface texture and reflection.
