The Cycle of Tooth Preservation Via Stress-Reduced Direct Composite Restorations
This lecture will provide clinicians with an overview of differing biomimetic protocols and techniques to predictably restore the anterior and posterior dentition using a minimally invasive approach. Increasing interest has been developed on “Life-like” restorations also known as biomimetic restorations. These are either porcelain or resin based restoration that can be performed on the anterior and posterior areas of the mouth. They may adopt both an indirect and a direct technique. The common characteristic is that they are low stressed and highly bonded restorations able to reproduce the functional and optical characteristic of the natural dentition.

Successful Composite Resin Restorations - Part 1 of 2
Amalgam has been a durable successful dental restorative material; however this material has recently come under question due to its mercury content and disposal. Composite resin materials range from flowable to highly filled condensable type viscosities. There are many factors that influence the success of posterior composite resin restorations. This presentation will identify the factors that limit success (size, patient type, caries risk, shrinkage, curing light) and the materials that can be successfully used to restore posterior teeth. Beginning with flowable materials and their clinical application the presentation will discuss the open sandwich technique, use of flowable posterior restorations, sectional matrices and fluoride, calcium and phosphate releasing materials.

Trouble-free Highly Esthetic Composite Restorations
Dr. Fares presents his methods of building up one quadrant in one session with direct composite restorations.

Flowable Composite Versatility in Every Day Practice - Part 1
Dr. Irvani will give an outline of both conventional and unconventional clinical applications of low shrink flowable composites in creating esthetic and durable restorations.

Flowable Composite Versatility in Every Day Practice - Part 2
Dr. Irvani will give an outline of both conventional and unconventional clinical applications of low shrink flowable composites in creating esthetic and durable restorations.

Composite - The Ultimate Material for Minimally Invasive Dentistry
This program will include pearls from a clinician who has relied on adhesive dentistry and composite materials for over 25 years.

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.

Last Frontier in Esthetic Prosthetic Gingival Reconstruction on the Implant Restoration - Part 2
his program is an alternate perspective into how "esthetics-driven" implant dentistry has evolved, and why today it is often essential to combine "pink" and "white" prosthetic replacement to achieve that optimal result.

Correction of Tooth Defects and Discolored Teeth Using Direct Composite Resin - Part 3 of 4
This video will deal with correction of severe tooth discoloration using nano composites. Immediate composite resin bonding can act as either the ideal correction or as an extended trial smile so patients can live with their new smile as long as necessary.

Principles of Clinically Successful Shade Taking - The Science & Art - Part 1
Dr. Ed McLaren takes us through a thorough exploration of the tools and principles that are the foundation of successful clinical shade taking.

Customize Your Composites For Your Patients
Today's composite resins have truly evolved to the point where you can several 'best' choice for any restorative situation. Using various case studies, this course will demonstrate the use of a family of low-shrinkage composites and proven techniques to provide many examples of the applications of different types of composites to provide excellent results. Additionally, we will discuss how to use the photography of these cases to create awareness to current, new, and potential patients through various marketing techniques.

Smile Design and The Bonded Functional Esthetic Prototype (BFEP)
The lecture will cover some simple Photoshop techniques to enhance a smile digitally to present to the patient and motivate them to accept treatment. This lecture will mainly focus on the the step-by-step process of how to turn the 2-dimensional Photoshop smile design into a 3D Bonded Functional Esthetic Prototypes (BFEP’s) the patient wears to verify esthetic and functional acceptance. A very efficient technique using a new highly flowable but highly filled micro-hybrid that uses an injection molding tray technique will be demonstrated. A full arch composite bonding can be done in one hour with this technique. This BFEP technique can be used for “trial smiles” for pre-treatment esthetic and functional evaluation by the patient and the treatment team. It can also be used for long-term functional temporization for years if necessary. The BFEP will then be used as the final guide for preparations for Anterior Etched Ceramic restorations (porcelain veneers and glass ceramics.

Trouble-Free Highly Esthetic Composite Restorations
During this webinar we will discuss through pictures and HD videos, a methodological approach on how to consistently succeed highly esthetic trouble-free and durable composite restorations.

Transitional Bonding - Major Esthetic & Occlusal Changes in One Visit Using Composite
This live patient presentation will change the way you treatment plan and restore many patients by providing you with a practical system to confidently deal with bigger and more complex cases.

Direct Posterior Bonded Restorations - An Outline of a Clinical Technique
In this study, the authors explore current concepts in direct posterior bonded restorations

Updating Classifications of Ceramic Dental Materials
The indications for and composition of today’s dental ceramic materials serve as the basis for determining the appropriate class of ceramics to use for a given case. By understanding the classifications, composition, and characteristics of the latest all-ceramic materials, which are presented in this article in order of most to least conservative, dentists and laboratory technicians can best determine the ideal material for a given treatment.

Final Finishing of Composites and Laminates
Covers the principles in finishing laminates.
