Today we are inundated with options for cementation materials. How do we choose the proper cement for each situation? Dr. Gillespie brings you a current review of everything from resin modified glass ionomers and total etch/dual cure systems, to the latest in self-etching cements.
Highlights include cementation review and tips from implants to anteriors, zirconia to posteriors. A solid understanding of when to use each cement will lead to a clear understanding to predictable cementation throughout the mouth.
Part 2: A Science-based Protocol for Direct and Indirect Restorations that will End Post-Operative Sensitivity In Your Practice for Good!
Presenter: Dr. Jeffrey Blank, D.M.D.
CE Credits: 1 CEU (Home Study) Release Date: 7/27/2010
Reliably bonding direct and indirect restorations to both enamel and dentin is the single most important scientific discipline in modern dentistry. Over the past 18 years, adhesion has increased in effectiveness and predictability, but in turn has become complex and confusing. This CE presentation will address proper product selection, proper use of products and the variables that control the post-operative outcome.
