Staging Complex Esthetic-Restorative Cases: Putting Things in the Proper Order
Thomas McDonald, DMD
Modern dentists have developed vast knowledge in esthetics, occlusion and restorative dentistry. However, when presented with a complex case, many clinicians have difficulty deciding where to start and the proper sequence for treatment. This course will outline a time-tested system for diagnosis and treatment sequencing of complex esthetic-restorative cases with emphasis on segmental restoration. This approach is often more technically achievable for the clinician, and particularly in today’s economic climate, it is more feasible for the patient. Learning Objectives: • Techniques to achieve a stable, repeatable starting point for the occlusion • How to sequence a complex case in the proper order • The importance of segmental restoration for clinical predictability and patient acceptance
