Ways Fiber Can Benefit the General Practice

Credit Hours: 1.5
Not a month goes by that I am not grateful I keep fiber in my standard armamentarium. Our discussion will review the standard procedures that various fibers are designed to be used for such as: denture repairs, splinting teeth and temporary and permanent resin bonded bridges. We will also review how understanding and having fibers available has benefited my practice in ways I did not predict. You will learn to utilize various fibers for chairside denture repairs. Understand fibers benefits in emergency uses. Be better positioned to utilize fibers for restorative purposes. Understand some of the basic principles of fibers to determine additional uses in your practice.
