Course Objectives

• Direct composite restorations in natural layering technique and stratification technique for anterior teeth with Miris 2 and BRILLIANT EverGlow
• Direct composite restorations in premolars and molars with duo-shade colors and layering technique with dentin and enamel shades, individualization in fissures
• Semi-direct COMPONEER Veneering Technique for “Smile to go Esthetic”, individualization through anterior composite enamel shades
• Indirect milling technique of BRILLIANT Crios with Cerec or milling machines
• Prosthetic with resin inlays, onlays, crowns and veneers after tooth preparation

Course Abstract

This course celebrates the versatility of composite as the material of choice for direct and indirect therapy. The different restoration techniques will be elucidated in theory and practice, looking at the newest generation of classic and flowable composites as well as state of the art resin-based prefabricated treatment options such as CAD/CAM blocs or veneers.

With the sophisticated dentin and enamel shades of modern composites like BRILLIANT EverGlow and Miris2, dentists are able to imitate dental tooth structure and rebuild tooth substance with a minimally invasive approach. Additionally, new flowable materials like BRILLIANT EverGlow Flow are perfectly designed to complete these systems for lining, colouring and modelling.

In order to simplify the restoration of anterior teeth, COMPONEER, the innovative Composite Veneering System, provides an innovative and clever treatment option. It adds the merits of composite materials to the comfort of a prefabricated veneer - all combined in a minimally invasive protocol.
While composite has long been the gold standard in direct filling therapy it is now also rapidly conquering the indirect CAD/CAM technology. Latest study data underlines the excellent suitability of resin-based blocs as a long-term treatment and opens up new opportunities in bruxism and craniomandibular treatment and to raise the occlusion levels.
