All-ceramic
restorations in 2018:
clinical steps
Nasser Barghi
University of Texas, USA
Introduction: Innovations in digital dentistry and high-
strength all-ceramic systems in conjunction with advanced
CAD/CAM technology provide us with more opportunity to
offer esthetic and function not only in the esthetic zone, but
also in high stress posterior occlusion. Each system requires
specific tooth preparation, laboratory communication, surface
conditioning for luting. Current ceramic primers and luting
cements have made these a reality. All-ceramic restorations
in 2018 is an in-depth look at concepts, procedures and
products to enhance the durability of these restorations.
Course Objective: This course is designed to provide
participants with practical information on indications,
selection, tooth preparation, laboratory communication and
bonding of current types of all ceramic restorations in light of
current scientific and clinical information. Failures of esthetic
restorations and steps for intra-oral repairs will be discussed.
Topics to be Discussed: The following topics will be discussed
as a part of all-ceramic restorations in 2018: 1. Porcelain
veneers; 35 years observations; what we did? What we do?
2. Clinical considerations of zirconia and IPS e.max lithium
disilicate restorations. 3. Minimal invasive procedures with
CAD/CAM zirconia restorations. 4. Bonding and cementing
zirconia restorations in light of current scientific information.

Examination of acute
dental injuries: clinical
and radiographic
techniques
Frances M Andreasen
Copenhagen University, Copenhagen, Denmark
Dental injuries can happen anytime, anywhere. Often in
the midst of a very busy day, a victim of dental injury
appears at the surgery. An important key to success is
prompt treatment. This can be difficult if the dental surgeon
is involved with other patients. However, properly trained
dental auxiliaries – the dental chairside assistant or dental
hygienist – can perform the initial clinical and radiographic
examinations. This presentation is designed for the entire
dental team, with the aim of disarming the stressful situation
an acute injury represents as well as initiating the necessary
procedures which will serve to identify the area of focus for
treatment.
