Abstract
Restoring a patient’s smile — particularly when it comes to the anterior teeth — is one of the most rewarding aspects of dentistry, despite its many challenges. From evaluating the condition of the existing tooth, to its overall color, shape, structure and position, there are many factors at play when determining an appropriate restoration technique and restorative material to achieve the most functional, esthetic result. Join Dr. Edward Lowe, a practicing dentist, published author and international lecturer, for a deep dive into the clinical tactics and best practices of indirect anterior restorations.
