Class
II Direct Resins: Faster, Easier and Better For: Dentists only
Amalgams have served dentistry for almost a century. However,
amalgam fillings undergo constant corrosion and are not esthetic.
Posterior direct resin restorations seal teeth, reinforce
remaining tooth structure and allow more conservative preparations.
In this presentation, Dr. Jackson will show a simplified,
predictable placement technique for the Class II direct resin
restoration. Areas covered in this presentation include: Beste casinospelletjes

Giving Your Patients Something to Smile About: The Art
of Direct Resin
For: Dentists only
The real power of cosmetic dentistry is providing patients
with beautiful smiles that enhance self-esteem, and encourages
them to refer their friends. Operative procedures run the
gamut from the simple invisible Class III restoration to the
complex complete smile makeover. However, dentists are challenged
to keep current with a multitude of improved materials (resins,
ceramics, adhesives, etc,) in order to solve unique clinical
problems. This presentation will illustrate the value of using
direct composite resin for treating anterior restorative and
cosmetic needs. The simple, conservative techniques shown
will lead to results that please the patient and the dentist.
Topics to be covered include:
Rationale of
additive dentistry versus subtractive
Materials and
systems
Colour, opacity,
translucency and texture
Correcting minor
defects can make a big difference
The invisible
Class IV, simple diastema closure and full veneers
