Predictable Posterior Composite Course
Available
Lecturer: Nadeem Younis | BDS MSc DGDP(UK) DPDS
Course Fee: £795
Introduction
The posterior composite course will enable the delegates to restore small and large defects in posterior teeth in a predictable and consistent manner so that the restoration mimic the natural tooth. A theory with regards to composite resins will be covered but there will be a heavy emphasis on the practical side so that the practitioner will be able to restore various defects confidently.
Aims & Objectives
To enable the delegates to restore posterior teeth with direct composite resin restorations in a predictable manner.
Objectives
- Understand posterior tooth anatomy
- Shade matching
- Restore class II cavities with predictability
- Understand the Stamp Technique
- Appraise whether lining materials are not required
- Creating anatomically contact points with matrices
- Appraise different bonding agents
Course Content:
- Classification of bonding agents
- Shade taking – using different methods of taking shade predictably
- Relating shades of teeth to composites
- Occlusion
- Moisture Control
- Anatomy of teeth – identifying various features on molars and premolars and reproducing
- them with composites
- Incremental build-up techniques
- Use of tints for recreating occlusal stains and fluorosis effects
- Different matrices for creating proximal walls
- Modifying wedges
- Appraisal of lining materials
- Polishing of composites predictably and consistently to high luster
- Clinical case studies will be shown covering class and class II restorations
