Abstract:
In the field of operative dentistry, it isn’t just Tofflemire bands and amalgam anymore. Whether because of esthetic requirements or conservative dentistry aspirations, today’s dentist must be able to skillfully and consistently provide patients with satisfactory posterior resin restorations. This course will discuss how to overcome some of the common problems associated with posterior resins. Useful tips, such as the use of cavity disinfectants and resin-modified glass ionomers, together with proper light curing, the selection and utilization of some of the newer matrix systems, and the judicious use of one-step adhesives that etch, prime, and bond, can all contribute to enhanced success with posterior resin placement.
