Structural Color Gives Life to Restorations
Presenter: Dr. Newton Fahl Release Date: 11/1/2023 Expiration Date: 11/1/2026 CE Credits: 1
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.

Simplifying Complex Anterior Direct Composites with a Single Shade Composite System
Presenter: Dr. Kevin M. Brown Release Date: 11/17/2021 Expiration Date: 11/17/2024 CE Credits: 1
In recent years, direct anterior composites to improve esthetics in a minimally invasive manner have become increasingly popular. Patients are also being exposed to dental treatments on social media and are seeing what a tooth looks like when it’s drilled down for an indirect porcelain restoration, and it frightens them and they are seeking out alternative less invasive methods to enhance their smiles. Layered “polychromatic” direct composite bonding has been around for a long time, but it is a challenging technique to learn and equally challenging to be fairly compensated for the added time and special materials used. A new single shade composite system has simplified the esthetic anterior composite bonding technique to make it easier for the dentist to achieve seamless results without the frustration of polychromatic layering. This CE webinar will use high quality photography to illustrate how this new single shade composite technique can be used effectively and efficiently to achieve outstanding results.
During this CE webinar, the participant will
• Understand the principles of esthetic anterior direct composite bonding
• Understand how a new single shade composite system can be applied with bonding in the esthetic zone
• Learn principles and techniques that will make esthetic composite bonding easier and more predictable
