We know that when we perform direct bonding procedures, our adhesives and restorative materials can cause proteolytic responses in the dentin structure, which may ultimately lead to failure at the interface. However, we tend to overlook the possibility of similar outcomes with our resin cements. As we create the same hybridization of the dentin, there is a potential for failure due to bacterial contamination, insufficient infiltration, and the acidity of our resin cement. This CE webinar aims to explore a cementation process that can significantly improve the success of this critical restorative procedure.

Delivering optimal posterior composites often pose pain points for even the most technically skilled practitioner. Challenges with isolation, placement and layering, predictable curing, contour and contacts, and final finish/polish and esthetics, sometimes lead to underwhelming outcomes. This CE webinar is designed to provide updates on materials and techniques, which when integrated, can resolve many of the pain points facing doctors, and lead to better outcomes, happier patients, and greater satisfaction in practice.

One of the most popular restorative options available today for patients is the use of full-contoured milled zirconia. Advances in new multilayered zirconia blocks and sintering technology, combined with the ability to super-fast mill zirconia restorations, affords the opportunity to provide single-visit zirconia restorations for our patients in a fast and efficient manner. Zirconia restorations can be predictably and efficiently milled, sintered, polished, and delivered in as little as an hour. In this CE webinar, Karyn M. Halpern DMD, MS will discuss the chairside workflow using Zirconia. The properties and clinical applications of the latest zirconia blocks will be reviewed. Techniques on how to pre-polish, polish after sintering, and stain and glaze will be presented.

Bonding Basics for Lasting Cosmetic Artistry
Presenter: Dr. Devin McClintock
Sponsor: Bisco
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study)
View Full Description »
Advancements in technology and materials have shifted the field of dentistry. As a result, providers opt to rely more on chemical adhesion over mechanical retention with both their direct and indirect restorations. This paradigm shift of preparation design to a more conservative approach is dependent on an equal shift in our bonding protocols. The road to reliability in adhesive dentistry is paved through consistency and reliance on adhering to science. Developing systems and protocols and sticking to them ensures long term stability with cosmetic restorations. Which in turn results in happy patients with reliable outcomes. But how does one develop the proper systems and protocols? In this CE webinar, providers will learn how to simplify yet optimize their isolation techniques and bonding protocols to achieve more predictable long-term success with both their direct and indirect restorative outcomes.
