THIS VIDEO WILL OVERCOME THESE CHALLENGES! Gordon shares the best procedures, materials and devices as proven by Clinicians Report researchers and clinicians. If your technique follows the steps shown in this video, you will have better looking, more predictable, faster placed, and longer-lasting class II composite restorations. The new concepts for types of class II restorations such as bulk-fill, dual-cured materials, combos of resin and conventional glass ionomer, as well as total disinfection of the tooth preparations are compared with the previous conventional concepts being thoroughly demonstrated by Gordon.
