Direct techniques for minimising sensitivity and obtaining perfect contacts

This course will address the main causes of post- operative sensitivity with posterior composites, and present techniques that can be predictably employed by the clinician to prevent it occurring. This will include a discussion on cavity design and restorative material placement as well as the role of self-etching dentine bonding systems, glass ionomers and flowable resins. 

During hands-on exercises, participants will have the opportunity to practice composite placement in typodont teeth using the materials and techniques discussed.

Topics include

  • How does the cavity position and design affect prognosis? 
  • Is there an advantage in switching to self-etching dentine bonding systems? 
  • Liners and bases - do we still need them in the age of adhesive dentistry? 
  • Which composites are best suited to posterior applications? 
  • What is the role of Bulk Fill Composites? - are they the future?
  • Getting tight contacts - matrix systems for posterior restorations 
  • Instrumentation for posterior composites 
  • Finishing and polishing procedures
