Simple and predictable approaches to crown and bridge Workshop
BRIEF
Successful crown and bridge requires reproducible, predictable results. Are you currently achieving this in your practice? Do you want to improve the quality of your fixed prosthodontics and reduce or eliminate the stress associated with annoying remakes and work that is sent back? This all-day lecture and hands-on workshop will discuss preparation guidelines and how to correctly and consistently prepare teeth for porcelain fused metal (PFMs) and the numerous all-ceramic crown/bridge options now available. The program is also designed to eliminate any confusion you may have with tissue retraction, with special emphasis placed on retraction techniques (sheep jaws will be used for demonstrations and practice). Improving your impression taking skills, recognising a satisfactory impression and importantly, developing techniques to minimise retakes will be presented. The fabrication of well-fitting temporary crowns, which includes some new temporisation techniques, will be covered. Overall, special tips and clinical hints will be presented throughout the day, with the specific goal of making your job easier by providing tips that can be used the next day in your practice. Individual attention and tuition will to be given with plenty of time allocated for questions.
