Supported with decades of research, this CE webinar dives into the enhanced value of short fiber-reinforced resin composites. What are they? These are composites, that have glass fibers placed in a variety of orientations and lengths to enhance the physical properties in load bearing areas. Do they replace your everyday composites and the answer is NO! What they do bring to the table are ways to enhance your restorations (especially endodontically treated teeth) and help reduce the risks of cracks and crack propagation.

Patients come into our office with misaligned, chipped or discolored bonded restorations. However, due to social media, patients are more fearful of "drilling" on their teeth. Therefore, they become very apprehensive about treatment. It is crucial to educate and communicate to our patients and use a more conservative approach to enhancing their smile. Step one for success is to correctly align the teeth in order to have long term results with composite bonding. Step two is assessing where and how much is needed to enhance the newly positioned teeth to create a more esthetic result. Composite bonding can yield immediate results and gratifications.

Composite resins use pigment-based technology to match the polychromicity of natural teeth. Here, the challenge lies in adequately selecting dentin and enamel shades to mimic the optical characteristics of each layer in a restoration. Unlike other systems, omnichromatic composites are based on the structural color concept whereby a pigment-free, single shade can blend in with the surrounding tooth structure to produce seamless restorations. This CE webinar will discuss how this novel technology can effectively solve different clinical challenges with great esthetic success.

Traditional instruction for composite application has always been “incremental” and with “cold” room temperature material. And yet, voids and gaps are often observed with the “cold” placement of these materials. Flowable composites and various placement techniques have been developed to help overcome this problem, especially in the deepest parts of our tooth preparations. However, recent evidence is calling this “tried and true” process into question. In this CE webinar, join us to review the “tradition” of composite placement as you and I were taught in dental school and as we investigate a processes that can simplify and improve your long term restorative process.

The goal of every composite restorative material developed by manufacturers, is to become the synthetic restorative that best mimics natural tooth structure and be the most Biomimetic available. Materials can claim to be the “best” in one or more performance categories or testing protocols. However, the best material theoretically - will be the one that is “best” in the greatest number of those testing categories or properties. This CE webinar will detail and analyze the various “key” testing protocols used in manufacturing for the testing of composite materials. We will then explain the in-vivo, clinical value, of those tests and associated bar graphs.
