Simplified or multi-step techniques for perfect outcomes
The question often heard from dentists during cementation procedures is, “Am I doing it right?”
The truth is, there are so many options available for dentine bonding and cements today, and so many associated “hints and tips” to get the best clinical outcomes, that it can become quite confusing, and some clinicians may even find themselves using the wrong application technique for their product. The result can be poor bond strengths or post-operative sensitivity issues, both of which will ruin the clinical case.
In this one-day lecture and workshop program, Dr Mandikos will cover the relevant theory of dentine bonding and cementation to ensure attendees understand how bonding works, how the different cements work, and what each of the different systems available actually does. He will demystify cementation protocols and bust a few “Urban Myths” along the way.
This is a program designed to clarify the steps required to adhesively cement crowns, veneers, inlays and posts.
What you will learn:
- A review of the different bonding systems, including metal and ceramic primers
- A review of the different cement technologies – Simple and Multi-step systems
- Evidence based techniques – “How to bond properly !!”
- When to use silanes and metal primers
- The role of the new Universal Adhesives – are they the future?
- Which cement to use for which clinical case
