The prevalence of tooth wear is increasing and fully guided composites offer versatile solutions for restoring worn teeth. We will explore the A-Z of the injection moulding technique (IMT) and apply it for the complex needs of managing the worn dentition. We will discuss opening the vertical dimemsion, create a new occlusion and maximise the potential of additive direct restorations. The two-day programme is designed to take you chronologically through the patient’s journey, from initial assessment to fully guided, interceptive treatment and right through to maintenance and recalls.
Day 1: Theory of IMT
Practical: 6 anterior monoshade composite buildups, 1 layered buildup
Day 2: Theory of managing the worn dentition
Practical: deprogramming with a Lucia jig and smile design on iPad
