Subject Code: 780 - Esthetics/Cosmetic Dentistry Credits: 1.5
Course Description:
CAD/CAM material choices grow on a daily basis. It can be
confusing to try to understand the application, selection, and science of each
material and how these products will fit into your clinical practice.
Preparation design also has an impact on the performance of these materials as
we no longer prepare our teeth for a lab tech, we prepare them for a machine.
This series will focus on the biology (the teeth), the engineering (the
preparation, and materials science), and the chemistry (bonding). The purpose
of this lecture is to place materials into categories for you to make informed
clinical decisions in your own practice and to shine light on material
interaction with preparation design. This first lecture topic will look at
common material classifications for anterior indirect restorations.
Learning objectives:
- What is the function of mastication?
- Why do teeth look the way they do?
- Enamel
- Dentin
- The Dentin-Enamel Complex
