Cementation and Ceramic Update

Dentistry is changing faster today than at any time in modern history. The role of the monolithic
restorations, Universal Adhesives, and digital needs to be understood and implemented in every dental
practice. As a practicing clinician and as the Director of Education and Technology at Utah Valley Dental
Lab, Dr. David Hornbrook has a very unique perspective of these changes in what he has coined “living on
both sides of the Bench”. With a practice focused on metal-free, all-ceramic Aesthetic-based dentistry,
Dr. Hornbrook understands the importance of predictability, ease of use, and long-term success when
deciding which restorative material and cementation option will provide the best results. As the Director
of Technology at a State-of-the-Art Dental Lab, his day-to-day interaction with ceramists and other
clinicians provides him a thorough understanding of the problems both these groups face and how they
are overcoming challenges and benefiting from CAD: CAM, Digital Wax-ups and Design, and high

strength, aesthetic ceramic materials.

Join Dr. Hornbrook as he discusses:

• Esthetic, monolithic ceramics and when to use what.
• Deciphering the new dentinal adhesive agents and how we can combine ease-of-use with long-term
predictability.
• When to adhesively “bond” and when we can use “Luting” agents and what’s available.
• PMMA long-term provisionals and how they are used to provisionalize implant sites and help
sequence Full Mouth Rehabilitations.
• Bio-stimulating cements: how and when they can and should be used.
• Achieving highly Aesthetic anterior Implant results using the “H” Abutment.
• New changes in implant designs that allow for Screw-Retained Implant crowns where traditional
designs made this impossible.
• The new milling machines for ZrO2, Lithium Disilicate and resins, to yield more accurate and detailed
restorations.
• Use of a computer-assisted anesthetic delivery device to limit the amount of anesthesia used and
allow for evaluation of Smile Designs with full lip mobility
• ...and much more!
