AGD Subject Code: 250

Not every patient can afford to have their teeth crowned or would prefer to wait for that option. As dental professionals, we aim to provide alternative treatments that allow us to buy time and stabilize teeth in the medium term. Large composite restorations serve as a valuable alternative for such cases. In this lecture and hands-on demonstration, we will share practical tips and tricks for restoring large teeth defects using composite resin. The hands-on portion will demonstrate building a tooth with a missing cusp. Whether you’re looking to enhance efficiency or achieve optimal esthetics, mastering the right techniques can lead to successful outcomes for your patients.
