Restorative Dentistry
Restorative dentistry plays a vital role in re-establishing both the function and appearance of the dentition affected by decay, trauma, or wear. With continual advancements in materials, techniques, and technologies, the field is progressing toward more durable, aesthetic, and patient-friendly solutions.Today’s restorative strategies emphasize minimally invasive approaches, improved adhesive systems, and biomimetic principles that aim to preserve natural tooth structure. Innovations such as CAD/CAM technology, digital impressions, and high-performance composite resins are enhancing precision and patient outcomes.The scope of this field encompasses direct and indirect restorations, inlays and onlays, veneers, crowns, bridges, and full-mouth rehabilitation. Integration with other specialties—such as prosthodontics, endodontics, and periodontics—ensures a comprehensive approach to oral health. This session invites professionals to explore the latest evidence-based practices, material innovations, and digital tools transforming restorative care. Attendees will gain insights into clinical protocols, case management, and the future of restorative techniques in both simple and complex scenarios.
