Secondary and Tertiary Anatomy: Essential in Emulating Nature
Online
Added:09/17/2024 9:49 AM

Course Description:
Color, hue, chroma, and value in a composite restoration will help us create an acceptable result, but in order to create a truly world class outcome that mimics nature using a manufactured material requires an added dimension.
In dentistry, we often overlook how we can add this extra dimension to our restorations, this can be done by adding secondary and tertiary anatomy to our composites. Any artist will discuss the importance of light reflection in copying natural materials and the part reflective and deflective surfaces play in the creation of a perfect replica and this applies equally to our dental composites.
This course discusses a structured, practical way to assess the kinds of secondary anatomy we need to ensure symmetry and correct light reflection in the finishing of our composites as well as a step-by-step guide in creating polished tertiary anatomy (texture) and the amount of texture required
Learning Objectives:
How to train our eyes to appreciate the anatomical quirks in dental anatomy that need to be copied in order to emulate nature.
How to assess the quantity and quality of anatomy to place into our composite restorations.
How to place the secondary and tertiary anatomy into your composites in a structured and predictable way.
