COURSE OVERVIEW
Conserving unaffected tooth structure when performing endodontics, especially in the cervical region of the tooth where loading is concentrated under function, will affect the survivability of that tooth over time. This is why endodontic treatment needs to begin with a determination of how the tooth will be restored. Then, high-quality endodontic treatment can be geared toward preserving important tooth structure in a way that does not compromise the results of restorative treatment. This webinar will examine the benefits of providing endodontic treatment with a restorative focus as a way to improve long-term survival and function of the teeth.
Supported through an unrestricted educational grant from SS White
