Questions & Answers
Continued advancements in adhesive materials and techniques provide clinicians the ability to preserve tooth structure, optimize bond strengths and restore teeth with biomimetic principles. When applied to prosthodontic procedures, these principles allow for less invasive treatment options by relying on adhesion rather than classic retention and resistance form. This lecture will discuss how concepts of biomimetic dentistry can be readily applied to fixed prosthodontics in the restoration of single teeth, quadrant dentistry and full mouth reconstructions.
