1. Achieving Proper Contact and Contour
Poor contacts can lead to food impaction and patient dissatisfaction, making it critical to use proper matrices and techniques.
2
Polymerization Shrinkage
Polymerization shrinkage can compromise marginal integrity, leading to post-operative sensitivity and microleakage.
3
Moisture Control and Isolation
Inadequate isolation can lead to contamination, compromised adhesion, and eventual restoration failure.

Dental Online Training has truly made me a better dentist and significantly upped my game. I’m also much more confident with treatment planning now. In some courses, there are so many people that you feel like just a tiny person in a big room, and you don’t always get your questions answered. But that’s not the case with DOT.
