2008 Lone Star Dental Conference

To Metal or Not to Metal

Including Restorative Failures

Friday, September 5, 2008

8:00 a.m. - 4:30 pm.

7 hours lecture credit - lunch included in all registrations

 

 Designed for the entire dental team

•   You’ve taken the courses on adhesive dentistry, smile design, new
  

•    technology, etc. but are still not happy with your long-term

•   restorative results. You’ve listened to all the “gurus” who make it look so

•    easy but have found out it’s not – in fact some of techniques taught don’t

•    seem to work well at all. You’ve been told that metal in the mouth is not a

•    good thing and that all composite or ceramic restorations are the way to

•    go. You’re looking for the truth and some answers to your dilemma.

 

  

   Using 33 years of clinical experience Dr. Small tells it like it really is and shows you

   how to achieve the most consistent successful restorative results in an esthetic

   manner as possible.  With a combination of classic dental techniques and new ones,

   he will lead you through restorative cases from a single tooth to full mouth

   reconstruction including implants.

 

   You will learn:

  - How to motivate your patients for accepting excellence

  - Evidenced based veneer preparations

  - Nine principles of crown preparations

  - Diagnosis and treatment of the worn dentition

  - Tips and tricks for restorative dentistry – simple to complex – including implants

  - Cast gold use in 2006 - When to use metal and when to use all ceramic restorations

 

Don’t miss this state of the art seminar and motivate

yourself for excellence.
