Achieving "Red-White Aesthetics" with Indirect Composite

The recent emphasis on "Red-White aesthetics" in Cosmetic Dentistry has created a demand for aesthetic restorative materials that mimic both the dental and gingival elements. Conventional porcelain restorations hold a long track record, however indirect composites such as Ceramage, a 73% zirconium silicate filled, micro-ceramic indirect composite is now creating a new wave in dental aesthetics as it efficiently simulates the intricate anatomical details of the natural teeth as well as the gum. Individualized red-white aesthetics is easily achieved with the comprehensive range of conventional and effect shades including the versatile gum colours of Ceramage.

In this presentation, the speaker will discuss the versatility of newer zirconium silicate filled Indirect composites such as Ceramage and its wide array of clinical applications that provide a niche area for successful indirect aesthetic restorations.
