The lecture will also focus on when and how to bond on worn dentition, additive partial indirect restorations (onlays/overlays) in composite and/or ceramic, depending on the indication.

All the step by step protocols will be addressed through images and videos in order to have a clear over view of this technique through an analog and digital workflow.

Objectives

• How to diagnose worn dentition (erosion and/or attrition).
• The indications and protocols for a no prep direct adhesive approach: “The Index Technique”.
• The indications and protocols for a minimal invasive indirect adhesive approach through composite and ceramic onlays/overlays.
