Class II Direct Resins: New Choices in Matrix Systems - Part 3
Description:
In Part 3 of this series, Dr. Glenn van As continues the discussion of some of the new choices available in Separating Rings, especially as they relate to enhancing successful contact development in class II direct resin restorations. In addition, he details the step-by-step techniques involving Rubber dam placement, hemostasis, and wedge placement. Emphasis is placed on what is required to optimize the utilization of the new generation of separating rings including the choice of composites for these type of restorations.

I should think that the main problem with the glory hole is when bonding gets through the hole, coating the adjacent tooth, and full composite then gets packed over it. If this happens (especially if a slightly wider than ideal glory hole has been made), you may have a big problem getting the matrix off---you'll have to cut it off... Then you won't have any separation between the teeth at all (since they'll be bonded together)! When this happens, an Interproximal Saw will be your saving grace, but it may take a bit of "sawing" to get through the glory-hole-bonded-contact. good luck!

Great overview Glen. Much appreciated.

It is interesting to learn that there is a glory hole at the matrix during preparation in order to make the class II restoration contacting tightly with the adjacent teeth. However, I am not sure whether the dental floss can pass through the interproximal area or not. It doesn't show at the lecture that the floss can pass through the interproximal area. or not.

[quote=gordon west]Glenn,
Nice overview of the sectional ring systems, I too like the V3. Which bonding system and composite are you using? Do you have any research to back the use of laser on the dentin? Thanks again and nice job.

Hi Gordon, thanks for the compliment. Yes there is a study that looked at bacterial disinfection of 20 preps using ErYAG and bacterial growth vs 20 preps not using the laser.
In all but one of the 20 preps using the laser - no bacterial growth were observed.
Here is a study that showed dentin bacterial reduction up to 500 microns. Lasers will disinfect well, that has been shown in both perio and endo research. The aim is not to improve bonding but more to disinfect and open up the dentin for bonding.

Decontamination of deep dentin by means of erbium, chromium:yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet laser irradiation.

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the depth of effectiveness of erbium, chromium:yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser irradiation on microorganism reduction. From human roots, dentin slices of 100 microm to 1,000 microm thickness were prepared. These specimens were sterilized and then inoculated with 1 microl of Enterococcus faecalis suspension. The backs of the specimens were then irradiated with Er,Cr:YSGG radiation at a pulse energy of 3.13 mJ, delivered at an incidence angle of 5 degrees to the dentin slice surface. A control group was left without irradiation. The remaining bacteria were collected in 1 ml sterilized NaCl solution, serially diluted and seeded in Columbia-Agar plates. Despite the low pulse energy of 3.13 mJ, the Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation resulted in significant bacterial reduction up to a dentin thickness of 500 microm (P < 0.05). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs of the contaminated and irradiated surfaces showed the absence of a smear layer and opened dentinal tubules.

Minimally Invasive Restorations through Maximum Visualization
This presentation will highlight providing minimally invasive restorations for patients, aided through technology such as magnification, illumination, percussion diagnostics and current dental material choices. Of critical importance today is the realization that patients are living longer and want to retain their teeth for a lifetime. With these factors in mind, the preservations of tooth structure is even more critical today than in former generations. For restoration longevity of minimally invasive restorations there must be a commitment to precision aided by magnification, understanding the physical properties of materials, controlling and managing the occlusal forces, learning how to measure and monitor the mechanical stability of tooth and implant stability with new technology breakthroughs and preventive control instructions.

Selecting the Right Composite for the Anterior Segment
In this presentation, Dr. Fahl will introduce the necessary concepts for the general practitioner to implement direct composite restorations in the anterior segment. A systematic approach for solving day-to-day challenges will be introduced based on the physical and color properties of current restorative systems. The selection of appropriate materials for distinct areas of the anterior dentition will be discussed and presented within the realm of its clinical significance. Dr. Fahl will include tips and tricks for achieving seamless, long-lasting artistic composite restorations.

Adhesive Dentistry: From Direct to Indirect Restorations
Restorative dentistry has changed in recent years. New materials and techniques allow the execution of partial restorations, direct and indirect, with metal-free techniques and started a true partnership between this discipline and prosthodontics. A good esthetic and functional rehabilitation starts from the proper clinical evaluation of the patient and of his problems, planning all the clinical and laboratory procedures in order to reduce the possibility of performing a subpar restoration. It is very important to have a synergy between the clinician, the dental technician and the patient and to make the right use of the protocols and a flow chart to address all patient needs. The goal is to achieve the right balance between biology, esthetic and function by applying a minimally invasive approach.

Clinical Tips for Posterior Composites
Despite the popularity of posterior composites, it is a topic that still creates questions and frustrations for many clinicians. Our goal is to place these restorations with ease and success to create long lasting results. We will discuss preparation design, material selection, matrices, and placement techniques. One of the most common questions I get is about predictably creating tight contacts, and we will look at several techniques to ensure this happens.
