Overview
Successful restorative dentistry begins with a well-designed preparation. This lecture will focus on the principles of preparation design and how dentists can create restorations that allow the restorative team to deliver predictable, functional, and esthetic results. Attendees will learn how small changes in preparation design can significantly influence the fit, strength, esthetics, and efficiency of the final restoration. The goal is to create a more predictable workflow between the clinicians and the laboratory by helping dentists understand what the restorative team needs from the preparation.
By attending this webinar you will learn how to:
- Understand the key principles of preparation design for predictable restorative outcomes
- Design preparations with the final restoration and workflow in mind
- Recognize common preparation errors that can compromise fit, function, strength and esthetics
- Improve communication with the dental laboratory through better prep design and clinical information
