DIRECT RESTORATION IN POSTERIOR REGION

When we have to restore posterior, we have to face a lot of problems, not only chained with esthetic , but often related with mechanical problems.

The aim of this lecture will be to clarify a lot of biomechanics aspect of the restorations in posterior region and to show a new way to layering based on a new hist-anatomic model, able to save precious time during the restorative therapies.

We will see which materials are effective and simple to use to make fast the layering of the missing part of the tooth, and, at the end we will close the lecture with some advices to improve and make fast all the steps of conturing, finishing and glossing.

The aim of all is to improve the quality of the restorations saving and optimizing our daily clinical time, without creating problem for the operator and for the patients.
