Class III acid-etch light polymerized composite resin restoration.

The use of an acid-etch enamel resin bonded Class III restoration allows for a more conservative cavity design. The acid-etch technique's benefits include retention without dentinal undercuts and creating reinforcement of undermined enamel. When a controlled method of acid-etched enamel resin-bonding with a syringe technique is used with a visible light curing composite resin, a durable, esthetic Class III restoration is achieved.

Creating the appearance of white enamel dysmineralization with bonded resins.

In special cases, white enamel discoloration can be stimulated using bonded resin materials. This paper describes a method of using bright white visible light-polymerized resin sealant material as an enamel bonding agent, which is overlayed with composite resin to enhance wear resistance of the restoration.

Smooth surface glass ionomer restoration for primary teeth.

Glass ionomer restorative cement offers the clinician an alternative to bonded composite resin for restoration of certain lesions in primary teeth. This article details a step-by-step procedure for restoration of a smooth surface carious lesion in a primary incisor using an encapsulated glass ionomer restorative material and reviews advantages and limitations of the cement. A light-hardened glass ionomer liner/base that has proven useful as an enamel and dentin restorative is also described.

Management of periodontal tissues for restorative dentistry.

Proper management of periodontal tissues is required to achieve predictable long-term success with restorative dental procedures. Forced eruption as well as several surgical techniques may be used to achieve and maintain adequate biologic width during restorative and esthetic dental procedures. The technique that will yield optimal results depends on the relationship between the restoration's margins and the surrounding periodontium. A classification system that describes these interrelationships and provides treatment recommendations is included.

The role of high technology in maintaining esthetic restorations.

Computer technology has revolutionized the way the world does business, allowing us to work faster, smarter, and more efficiently than ever before. Within dentistry, that translates to x-rays that use significantly smaller amounts of ionizing radiation, automated periodontal charting and storage devices, and imaging systems. Perhaps the greatest bottom-line benefit, especially in esthetic dentistry, is that these state-of-the-art developments enable dentists and hygienists to more effectively communicate with patients. The future of any restoration is based on the patient's motivation and ability to maintain an efficient oral hygiene routine. Esthetic restorations demand more vigorous home care programs to maximize their esthetic and functional life expectancy. With computerized images on screen, patients can better visualize the treatment that has been done and come to a realization that the restoration's success rests squarely on their shoulders.
