Venue : Novotel Singapore on Stevens, 28 Stevens Road, Singapore 257878
Workshop Synopsis
Direct resin reconstruction of the severely compromised anterior dentition is one of the more difficult challenges of clinical dentistry. The anterior dentition can present in many different shades, opacity and translucency. During the workshop participants will have the opportunity to restore a fractured central incisor using an aesthetic dental model that mimics the anatomy of natural teeth. They will learn the Naturomimetic “ONE” Layers Protocol using the Shofu range of bioactive composites and have the opportunity to contour and finish the restoration to a life-like natural lustre. At the end of the session they should have a greater appreciation on how to blend the different resins to achieve predictable aesthetic outcomes and understand a simplified method of finishing and polishing a direct anterior restoration.
Key Learning Points :
1. Able to color match and select the right resins in order to create aesthetic restorations
2. Understand the macro and micro anatomy of anterior teeth
3. Learn to recontour and achieve a lustre like polish that mimics natural enamel
4. Verbal skills to manage patient expectations and case acceptance of higher value options
5. Build confidence in indicating and completing aesthetic anterior restorations
