Injection Overmolding Dr. Jihyon Kim Course Description
Injection Overmolding is a predictable method for creating robust and esthetic restorations ranging from small fillings to esthetic or functional rehabilitation of a tooth. The advantages include: tooth conservation with no tooth structure removal for esthetic treatments such as black triangle or diastemata closures; minimal tooth structure removal during first disease treatment; and tooth structure preservation with later disease stages.
In this course, attendees will learn the principles and steps of Injection Overmolding to treat common anterior dilemmas from chipped/fractured incisors to conservative practice building aesthetic treatments such as black triangle and diastemata closures, including revolutionary bonding and maintenance protocols. Attendees will gain a new appreciation for high demand, patient-centered additive treatment possibilities with Injection Overmolded direct composite.
