Course Description

Direct composite resins are indispensable in modern dental practice. They offer patients minimally invasive, cost-effective restorations that preserve natural tooth structure while providing esthetics, function, and longevity. However, achieving predictable and sensitivity-free outcomes, particularly in anterior and posterior restorations, remains a challenge for many clinicians.

This comprehensive presentation addresses the increasing demand for cosmetic excellence and introduces efficient, clinically proven techniques that enhance both patient satisfaction and practice profitability. Attendees will gain valuable insights into: Shade selection, cavity preparation, layering strategies, bulkfill materials, achieving ideal proximal contacts, contouring and polishing for optimal esthetics, injection molding and other emerging techniques. By mastering these techniques and understanding the nuances of product selection, clinicians can confidently deliver high-quality, esthetic outcomes with composite resins.

This interactive course is designed to empower esthetic-minded practitioners with the tools and knowledge to perform restorative procedures efficiently, conservatively, and profitably.
