The following is a lecture sample of Dr Vishal Gupta's Masterclass "Seamless Margins in Anterior Composites" which is available in full to RipeGlobal Members

For 40 years dentists have been using the conservative approach of direct resin bonded composites to restore damaged/carious teeth.

But while it's a conservative method, mastering the technique can be challenging. There are times when you will perfectly match the shade and other times you will fail.

There are times when you are working towards a beautiful restoration and suddenly you see white demarcation lines. Or the restoration is looking grey.

In this masterclass, Dr Vishal Gupta shares his skills and the aesthetic considerations involved in restoring anterior teeth with composites.

He discusses the techniques you have available so you can optimise at every clinical-stage making your anterior composites more predictable and more successful, saving time and stress for you and your patient.
