Conference summary
Working on darkened dental substrates can be a challenge in Dentistry. It is very important to manage the correct thickness of the composite resins, as well as the correct opacities to use.
In this hands-on workshop, Dr. Paulo Monteiro will show how to manage these challenging cases in the clinic and participants will make a direct composite resin veneer on a model using a simple and predictable technique (opacifier and universal composite).
The importance of anatomy and surface condition will also be highlighted, this being even more important than color in the integration of the restoration with adjacent teeth.
