Injection Overmolding Dr. Jihyon Kim Course Description
Common dilemmas with posterior composite restorations are chipping, marginal leakage and staining, overhangs, poor contacts, and post-operative sensitivity. The Injection Overmolding method for composite handling and placement creates monolithic restorations with strength, integrity, and peripheral seal to mitigate these common clinical concerns.
This posterior course offers a common-sense, revolutionary clinical protocol to reduce the stress of posterior quadrant treatment through an understanding of clinical parameters for modern composite cavity preparations and evidence-based dentin bonding. Attendees will learn to enjoy delivering posterior composite dentistry with superior results patients will immediately recognize and appreciate.
