Contact point: effective posterior teeth direct restoration technique
Contact point: effective posterior teeth direct restoration technique
Course overview
One of the most "challenging" topics in direct restoration is the Class II restoration!
Thanks to our new training, daily work with Class II cavities will become an interesting challenge rather than a problem.
During the training, you will learn ALL stages of working with interproximal defects in molars and premolars:
anesthesia techniques
isolation and preparation
choosing the matrix system
restoration techniques and working with composite
finishing and polishing.

Why Learn Contact Point: Effective Posterior Teeth Direct Restoration Technique?
First of all, a tight and natural contact point is the key to a good Class II result. In addition, this course turns that hard step into a clear routine. As a result, your posterior work becomes faster and more predictable.
Moreover, Gokhan Dokumacigil and Marco Maiolino explain each step on real cases. For example, you will see the injection molding technique for back teeth. Also, you will learn how the spot weld method improves contact points with a Bioclear matrix.
Above all, the course covers class 2 composite restoration steps in a clear order. First, you choose the anesthesia and isolation. Next, you prepare the cavity and pick the matrix. Then, you place the composite and shape the tooth.
Furthermore, the lessons explain adhesion and composite choice for each case. Likewise, they show how to finish and polish the surface. So, every class 2 composite restoration looks clean and lasts longer.
What You Get from This Course
- First, a clear plan for every class 2 restoration.
- Also, simple steps for strong contact points.
- Then, tips for the right matrix system.
- Finally, a fast way to finish and polish.
In short, this course suits any dentist who works on molars and premolars every day. Thus, Contact Point: Effective Posterior Teeth Direct Restoration Technique is a smart step for daily practice.
So, think of your next case. First, you plan the contact. Then, you place the matrix. After that, you build the wall. Finally, you polish it until it shines.
Also, each lesson uses real molars and premolars. For example, you will see how to fix an open contact. Because of this, food will not get stuck after your work.
Besides, the course compares layering with injection molding. Then, it shows when each one fits best. As well, you will see how to choose an adhesive for each case.
Likewise, the matrix gets full attention. For instance, you will learn how to pick and place the right band. Finally, you will see how to finish the margins and polish the surface.
In other words, this course takes you from plan to polish. Overall, it gives you a full and clear path. Therefore, it is a good choice for any dentist who wants better back teeth work.
