This interactive, hands-on course provides general dentists with a practical “playbook” for creating lifelike Class IV composite restorations. Participants will refine anterior esthetic techniques, from accurate shade selection using photography to mastering multi-layered composite application. Through guided exercises, attendees will fabricate lingual putty matrices, restore natural form and translucency, and perfect finishing and polishing skills for predictable, high-quality results in everyday practice.
Learning objectives:
- Apply advanced shade selection and layering techniques for Class IV restorations.
- Fabricate and utilize lingual putty matrices for accurate form and contour.
- Implement finishing and troubleshooting strategies for natural, durable esthetic outcomes.
