Sypnosis

Advances in material science and technologies have led to the development of new bioactive materials that expand clinical applications of direct restorations and help clinicians adopt minimally invasive treatment approaches with an emphasis on preservation of tooth structure while achieving predictable smile aesthetics. Bioactive restoratives are considered an ideal material of choice when adopting MiCD (Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry) as they extend the functional life of the restored teeth by improving durability of highly aesthetic restorations, preventing secondary caries and stopping the repetitive restorative cycle, within the different treatment strategies and protocols.

 

This presentation will highlight the importance of evidence-based material selection and showcase different treatment strategies that can be adopted to achieve predictable aesthetics and function that meet patient expectations with long term clinical success.

 

Why Attend this Insightful Event?

  • How bioactive restorative materials with S-PRG technology can control the carious activity and prevent secondary lesions on the restoration margins

  • Types of bioactive composites and clinical application for different restorative strategies

  • Tips and Tricks to achieving predictable aesthetics and long lasting restorations

Sypnosis

Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry or MICD has been adopted by clinicians around the world as a concept that provides holistic patient-centred care with predictable outcomes that is both practical and profitable, while preserving sound tooth structure. A change in mindset to a conservative “less is more” approach when treatment planning helps clinicians transform smiles with less financial and biological cost that meet patient needs and expectations.

This presentation will highlight different MICD treatment options and showcase a variety of clinical scenarios where patient smiles were rejuvenated by applying simplified restorative techniques using bioactive composites to provide time efficient treatment with predictable aesthetics and function for long term success.

 

Why Attend this Insightful Event?

  • How to apply the MICD concept in treatment planning for smile makeovers

  • Understand direct restorative techniques when restoring different smiles defects

  • Illustrate the biological layering technique to achieve a perfect blend for optimal aesthetic outcomes

  • Secret to success by customizing the finishing and polishing protocol
