Posterior Composites Made Easy

Abstract

Posterior composites are the mainstay for many practices. Being able to perform them predictably with efficiency is the goal. This webinar looks at current materials, techniques, and instrumentation to accomplish this. Topics include matrix systems for tight contacts, bulk fill and regular materials, and placement and finishing techniques. The lecture compares total-etch to self-etch techniques and distinguishes the risks and benefits of each. It also details a systematic approach to evaluating the different generations of dentin adhesives and compares the clinical and research data of each. How to decrease post-operative sensitivity and increase the success of adhesive dentistry is also covered.
