Contemporary Ceramics
This presentation will cover many of the current “hot topics” in current dental ceramics from minimally invasive veneer restorations, to full coverage monolithic ceramic restorations. The lecture will go into how I design and plan anesthetic cases. It will also clarify the most appropriate clinical situations and restorative requirements of the various ceramic systems from conventional feldspathic glass systems, and glass-ceramic systems, to solid sintered mono-phase Zirconia-based systems, both layered and the users of the newer higher translucent “monolithic” higher CUBIC PHASE zirconia materials. Clinical and esthetic guidelines for using these ceramic systems will be covered. This presentation will focus on specific clinical indications and contraindications for the use of the various ceramic systems, specifically for no-prep, minimal prep, and normal prep veneers, inlay/onlay, “only (combination of veneer and onlay), and crown clinical indications.
