Gordon J. Christensen, DDS, MSD, PhD

You do these procedures many times every week! Are you using the best materials and techniques?  What is a filler, a build-up, or a post and core? When should you use each? Are you using the best codes for them? What kind of composite is best for a tooth build-up and why? Would you use your standard restorative resin or those sold as build-up resins?  In this video, Gordon compares the three procedures and discusses:

  • When to use a filler, a build-up, or a post?
  • Preps.
  • Retention – undercuts, channels, potholes, pins, or posts?
  • Tooth disinfection and desensitization.
  • Bonding agents – best and worst characteristics.
  • RMGI, GI, compomer, composite - When to use each?
  • Curing techniques when necessary.

This is one of the most misunderstood procedures in restorative dentistry. Let us guide you to the best techniques.
