Abstract
Aesthetic Dentistry has evolved leaps & bounds in the last couple of years and the new age contemporary bio-smart composite resins have actually narrowed down the gap between the direct & indirect restorations when it comes to aesthetic finesse & longevity of the treatment outcome. Composite resins empower the clinician to manage complex aesthetic situations in a minimally invasive way and offer more control in establishing aesthetic and functional harmony.
The most important criteria to achieve a perfect blend in anterior restorations is the ability of the clinician to look through the layers of the natural tooth & create a custom shade recipe for restorative layering. This presentation will elaborate on Facially Driven Aesthetics principles with MiCD layering concepts and the speaker cover a wide range of topics from aesthetic treatment planning, layering & injectable techniques, developing macro-micro anatomy, characterizations and finishing-polishing protocols to achieve harmonious & flawless life-like aesthetic outcome.
