BOTOX in Dentistry - Versatility & Therapeutic Benefits

Description:
Dentists are confronted every day with patients that do not respond to conventional masticatory and neuro-muscular treatments either because these treatments are ineffective, or their compliance with dental orthotics is poor, or both. Although dentists are the most highly trained injectors of the oro-facial region, they are not typically trained in the simple techniques how to inject the masticatory muscles with Botulinum toxin, to reduce and relieve the number and intensity of clenching events to lessen the destruction of tooth and TMJ structures, and reduce discomfort and pain in the associated musculature. Dr. Warren Roberts will discuss the use of Botox in the practice of dentistry to therapeutically treat these conditions, as well as how the treatment of aging soft tissue aspects associated with the smile, if addressed prior to the definitive dental cosmetics, can dramatically change the final restorative approach.

Anterior Substructure Design Considerations for Lithium Disilicate Crowns

Anterior Substructure Design Considerations for Lithium Disilicate Crowns
Considering anterior substructure designs for lithium disilicate crowns, a hybrid substructure design that supports a cusp to fossa anterior guidance relationships can increase the strength of the ceramic system without having to compromise the esthetic integrity of the crown. Refractive index values increase when the substructure thickens. Increasing the thickness of the substructure results in a crown of higher value.
