Composite Coaching - Hit Home Runs with Direct Resin and Gain Financial Freedom

Presented by Dr. Dennis Hartlieb, this lecture will focus on the skills and materials necessary to place direct anterior and posterior resin restorations that virtually disappear in the mouth. Utilizing the latest in nanotechnology composite materials, layering techniques will be reviewed that not only create properly shaped restorations, but will also offset the tooth stress issues related to polymerization shrinkage. Techniques to create tight, appropriately contoured class II restorations will be reviewed. Layering techniques utilizing nanofilled and microfill composites, opaquers, and tints will be taught to create invisible class IV and other anterior direct restorations. Contouring and polishing techniques of anterior and posterior composites also will be reviewed in detail.
