ACDE Webinar | Posterior Partial Coverage Restorations: Decision Making and Preparation Designs

Explore the modern decision-making process for posterior partial coverage restorations, with an emphasis on conservative, evidence-based preparation designs. Through a progression from traditional gold restorations to contemporary adhesive techniques, you’ll learn more about the biological, mechanical, and esthetic principles that guide clinical choices. The webinar will highlight modern restorative philosophies such as Immediate Dentin Sealing (IDS), Deep Margin Elevation (DME), and Cavity Design Optimization (CDO), providing a comprehensive framework to help you select the appropriate restorative approach in your daily practice.
