Direct Resin - A simplified approach for the GDP

Written by Ivoclar Vivadent | 17 September 2020

A whistle-stop tour of anterior and posterior resin: very intensive and evidence-based. Dr. Smithson’s presentation covers the art of the anterior direct composite describing the protocol required to produce a class 4 restoration that is invisible to the human eye. This is followed by a more technical analysis of the process required to prepare and place a posterior composite resin restoration, which requires no or little occlusal adjustment.

In this webinar, you will learn more about the following themes

  • How to achieve invisible restorations
  • How to create incisal opalescence 
  • How to polish composite so it is indistinguishable from natural enamel
  • How to avoid post-operative sensitivity How to place adjustment-free restorations
  • This presentation is suitable for all levels
