Why not gold? Contemporary esthetics and restorative practice.

In today's dental world, there are many more options of materials and equipment than there was years ago. It can be very confusing for anyone to sift through the marketing and lectures and determine which of the new materials are best suited for our patients. Classic gold techniques have been around for over 100 years and have an obvious track record. Leinfelder (7) has stated, "Gold alloys are certainly the best materials by far in terms of maintaining a functional occlusion and longevity." Underutilized in the recent past, gold is undergoing a comeback in many areas. A major dental company recently introduced a new casting gold and recent advertisements for gold-related products have reappeared in dental magazines. It is incumbent upon the modern dental professional to be aware of all the restorative options available, learn how to perform them, and then choose the technique that will be the most appropriate for each situation. Longevity should always be a factor in the decision making process and gold is the answer in many applications.

The esthetic correction of anterior dental mal-alignment conventional vs. instant (restorative) orthodontics.

Creating a flow sheet may assist in the decision whether to use conventional orthodontics and what the limitations of treating the patient will be if treatment is performed without any orthodontics. The decision process can be viewed as a series of questions, and depending upon the answer to the questions, the practitioner and patient can decide on whether to involve orthodontics or not. Questions can create a framework to help separate the patients who would benefit from orthodontic intervention from those we all enjoy treating who can be managed with purely restorative care.

There are direct and indirect techniques involving acrylic or composite resin veneers made with or without a vacuform matrix. This article describes a direct technique for fabricating removable provisional veneers using an auto-polymerizing urethane dimethyacrylate resin and a thermoplastic matrix that may later serve as a stent to be worn with the provisional veneers.
