Achieving form and function for Class II restorations using aesthetic resin stratification.
It can be challenging to reproduce the appropriate three-dimensional contours when the proximal walls of posterior teeth have been lost. This presentation will demonstrate the fundamentals required to achieve predictable success when placing direct posterior composites in these Class II sites. The keys to successful placement of resin materials (eg, adhesive technique, integration of form and function, color match) are covered herein. When placing a direct resin restoration, clinicians must have a sound understanding of tooth morphology, combined with the proper techniques, outlined in the clinical case, in order to obtain an acceptable aesthetic restoration.
