Rethinking Modern Prosthodontics
~審美補綴の今と、その先へ~

In recent years, prosthodontic treatment has undergone a significant shift from a “drill and bond” approach toward one centered on preservation and adhesion. Long-term clinical outcomes and material research have demonstrated that preserving tooth structure contributes to the prognosis of restorations and long-term occlusal stability.
Furthermore, advances in adhesive technologies and dental materials have made esthetic and functional restorations that prioritize abutment tooth preservation a realistic treatment option.
In this session, we will explore the forefront of esthetic prosthodontic restoration through three perspectives: the latest international evidence, adhesive techniques, and prosthetic design. Under the theme of “The Integration of Preservation, Function, and Esthetics,” we will discuss how these concepts can be harmonized in modern restorative treatment.

Treatments of wear teeth by reinforced resin blocks and lithium disilicate indirect restoration: 8 and 10 years clinical outcomes

Treatments of wear teeth by reinforced resin blocks and lithium disilicate indirect restoration: 8 and 10 years clinical outcomes

  • To know about management of wear teeth in full mouth rehabilitation
  • How much to open vertical dimension
  • Optical and mechanical properties of different restorative materials
  • How digital impression can help clinically
  • Evaluate long term clinical outcome
  • How much bruxism can affect the clinical outcomes
This presentation is going through the treatment planning of wear teeth, how to evaluate the real need to treat the patient or to delay it. The optical and mechanical properties of the restorative materials will be explained. The use of digital devices will be described and integrated into the treatment planning. A wide number of randomized clinical trials were performed to support proper choices of the clinicians; these RCT will described giving explaining clinical tricks. Finally the role of occlusion and bruxism will be discussed and important and innovative informations will be provided.

The Potential of Zirconia Esthetic Restorations in the Era of Minimally Invasive Dentistry

低侵襲時代におけるジルコニア審美修復の可能性

  • Selection criteria for zirconia based on clinical cases
  • Tooth preparation considering the condition of each abutment tooth
  • Minimally invasive defect prosthodontics utilizing adhesive techniques
  • Presentation of treatment strategies based on clinical cases
Currently, minimally invasive treatment is becoming the key factor of all kinds of dental field as well as prosthodontic field. Adhesive and all ceramic materials enable clinician to not only minimally invasive restoration but also esthetic outcomes incompatible before.
This lecture will focus on zirconia ceramics and address the treatment options and its techniques that maximize the potential of all ceramic materials.

Clinical Management of Complex restorative Patient

Clinical Management of Complex Restorative Patient

  • Understand esthetic classifications
  • Explore the guidelines of material selection
  • Understand interdisciplinary treatment
A large change is brought to modern restorative dentistry by the innovation and development of dental materials. From the patient’s side, a voice to expect a higher level of esthetic restorative treatment is also rising because of a deluge of information and knowledge from various media and fields.
However, on the other hand, it possesses a certain element of danger.
In other words, it has a possibility to twist the essence of treatment in an excess of seeking esthetics. It is an axiomatic truth that even the esthetic restorative treatment cannot be said as a real restorative treatment if it has no considerations of function, structural mechanics and biology etc together.
That is the why we have to establish the clinical basis for the esthetic restorative treatment now, considering this knowledge. At the same time, the more complicated and difficult the clinical cases become, the more cooperation with another field, such as orthodontics, periodontics, and implantology will be needed at each clinical stage before, during, and after treatment. Thus the key to success of more refined aesthetic restorative treatment is a minute and detailed discussion with the specialist of another field about the diagnostic treatment planning.
