18. To be brutally honest, what have we really learnt about ceramics?… Prof Jim Ironside

Description

Today’s restorative choices when it comes to dental ceramics has widened immensely and offers great choices to solve complex problems. In some cases they also offer the opportunity to restore the tooth more conservatively or with more natural aesthetics. However, we need to choose wisely as some may not be more suitable than those more traditional ceramic solutions that we have used for many decades.

Learning Outcomes:

Creating aesthetic solutions in difficult case
Providing restoration capable of withstanding function
Minimizing damage to the supporting tooth
Understanding the differences between the systems.
