Learning Objectives

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able:

•To better understand the properties of the classes of ceramics

•To consider the differences between resin cements and their indications

•To discover alternative preparation methods for full coverage restorations

Abstract

Advances in ceramic technology and bonding with resin cements haave created new opportunities for the modern restorative dentist. The alternative crown preparation techniques discussed here offer less invasive solutions for patients.
