Separating fact from fiction of today's material advances

This program will look at a broad spectrum of restorative materials available today. Over the course of the last five years there has been an explosion in the number of restorative materials that are available to the practitioner. Years ago the practitioner was simply asked to pick between amalgam, ceramo-metal restorations and gold. Today’s practitioner must consider the various generations of bonding agents, composites, ceramics, cements, etc.

The course will allow the practitioner to sift through the confusing maze of materials and decide which materials are most appropriate for a multitude or restorative situation. In addition the course will also look at new radiation free diagnostic devices and provide an evidence based rationale for inclusion in the practice setting.

Topics include

Specific materials that will be covered include:
  • Self-etch adhesives
  • Low shrinkage bulk fill resins
  • Advancements in flowable composites
  • New generation of resin and resin modified glass ionomer cements
