Composite & Ceramic Bonding for Function and Esthetics: How, Where & Why (2023)

How to use composite and ceramics in complex cases in order to be minimally invasive and yet achieve a durable and aesthetic treatment result. The lecture will demonstrate the use of composite and ceramics in full mouth rehabilitation. Based on clinical cases, the so-called WIDIOM Rule (Would I Do It On Me?) will be presented. The lecturer’s almost 20-year experience of working with patients has helped to prioritize patient treatment and clinical decision-making in the choice of material that will meet the expectations of both patient and clinician. Step-by-step procedures for adhesive cementation of direct and indirect restorations made of composite and ceramic materials will be presented. The idea of minimally invasive treatment, which aims to provide the patient with the best possible results without excessive interference with the tooth tissue, will be explained. All this based on a multidisciplinary treatment that is possible for any dentist.
