Direct composite restorations on anterior and posterior teeth have become very desirable treatment options for clinicians motivated to offer their patients conservative, functional, long-lasting and aesthetic solutions. With proper techniques and state-of-the-art composite systems, clinicians can create beautiful restorations that mimic natural tooth structure. Selecting composite materials for each individual situation, based on physical properties as well as their opacity/translucency, gives the best results.
This lecture aims to:
- Share with practitioners clinically conservative and predictable approaches applicable in daily practice
- Discuss the importance of communication between patients, clinicians and laboratory
- Discuss management of traumatic cases, aesthetic solutions and functional needs
