Luncheons for Learning
Crown Preparations in the 21st Century
WILLIAM F. ROSE, JR., D.D.S.
FORMAT
One day a month a speaker discusses a dental topic during lunch. The sessions are informal and the group has an opportunity to interact with the speaker during the short discussion period at the end of the lecture. It requires only about one and one-half hour of your time to learn the latest developments in many areas of dentistry. It also offers the opportunity to become better acquainted with your colleagues and their staff since all dental allied personnel and technicians are also invited to attend.

OVERVIEW
New dental materials have allowed clinicians to use new, improved techniques in preparing, impressing, and provisionalizing teeth for indirect restorations. These materials allow for a true build up technique, great soft tissue management, moisture control , excellent impressions and provisional restorations that are fast and simple yet very accurate. This technique is a means of predicting success with each preparation.

Objectives
• Discuss impact of new materials in the indirect preparation technique with evidence to support their use.
• Discuss a different technique in preparing teeth for indirect restorations with improved ease and accuracy.
• Discuss making successful, accurate impressions every time that still protect soft tissue.
• Discuss the chair side fabrication of provisionals that are accurate and require little, if any, occlusal adjustment.
