The subject that took heart degree on November 15, 2025 was once “Mastering teeth put on and restoring smiles – esthetic and environment friendly”. Members in Seefeld and in a foreign country got a heat welcome via the Seefeld workforce round Dr. Armin Bock, Medical Schooling Chief EMEA, Dental Answers at Solventum, earlier than Prof now not Dr. Paulo Monteiro addressed a couple of introductory phrases to the neighborhood on behalf of the StyleItaliano workforce.

Then, it was once time for Dr. Riccardo Monterubbianesi’s keynote lecture. He supplied steerage on the best way to distinguish physiological from pathological teeth put on – the yearly physiological put on of teeth levels from a median of 15 microns for premolars to about 29 microns for molars.1 The very first thing to do when pathological teeth put on is recognized is tracking e.g. with an intraoral scanner, whilst working out the patient-specific reasons of teeth put on is vital for settling on next measures. The remedy plan will have to keep in mind the severity and extent of damage (localized as opposed to generalized) in addition to the age, situation and compliance of the affected person. When treating reasonable to serious teeth put on, protecting the teeth – achieved via settling on direct or oblique restorative tactics that depend on adhesion as a substitute of mechanical retention – is maximum vital.

In a mixed lecture and hands-on coaching, Dr. Maciej Zarow excited by a right away restorative way to expanding the vertical measurement of occlusion (VDO): the composite ball method. It’s completely appropriate for worn enamel with intact proximal touch issues. Previous to influence taking, a composite ball is bonded to the buccal wall (1.5 mm above the gingival margin) of every posterior teeth that shall be restored. Then, an influence and chew registration are taken, and a useful wax-up and clear silicon index with an built-in occlusal chimney (helpful to scale back interproximal extra) produced within the laboratory. The composite ball serves as a reference level for proper positioning of the index, which is full of in the past heated composite subject material and positioned at the pre-treated teeth. The composite is pre-polymerized throughout the index, the index got rid of, and extra moderately got rid of earlier than the general light-curing process.

Dr. Marcin Krupinski demonstrated the best way to repair worn anterior enamel with composite the use of a mono-shade method. He works with a wax-up and silicon index each time lengthening is needed and recommends the use of other composites relying on case-specific necessities: The slightly opaque 3M™ Filtek™ Common Restorative is his subject material of selection each time he wishes a covering impact or colour exchange. Because of its herbal blend-in impact, 3M™ Filtek™ Simple Fit Common Restorative is most popular when aiming at an exact fit with the herbal teeth construction. The speaker creates an anatomically proper form and offers for easy proximal and cervical surfaces with Unica anterior matrices (Polydentia). Composite is implemented the use of the snow-plough method, making a labially outsized recovery this is reworked into its ultimate shape all through completing.

An orthodontic viewpoint at the vertical measurement of occlusion was once supplied via Dr. Filippo Cipriani Noce. He argued that the complexity of a VDO building up strongly relies on the presence of temporomandibular issues (TMD). Best non-TMD sufferers are simple instances. As ex TMD sufferers have already failed to evolve as soon as, the speaker recommends defining the brand new VDO and carrying out a take a look at pressure with composite earlier than putting definitive restorations (e.g. product of lithium disilicate). Power-induced ache is a subclinical symptom that can result in TMD. Therefore, the supply of ache must be known and solved previous to restorative remedy. The similar is right for TMD sufferers: They want a differential analysis to spot the kind of dysfunction (extracapsular, intracapsular or blended) and choose the next measures accordingly.

In the end, Dr. Valentin Vervack introduced other posterior recovery tactics to be decided on relying at the quantity of data to be had in the rest teeth construction. So long as the fissures are nonetheless intact, it’s conceivable to reshape the cusps with composite, the herbal constructions guiding the software. If cusp knowledge is misplaced, he regards reshaping the rest teeth construction right into a non-retentive overlay preparation as the most suitable choice. The unsupported teeth is got rid of, sharp margins are created and the interior transitions are smoothened. The writer’s favourite software for this goal is a rugby-ball formed bur. What follows is instant dentin sealing and resin coating to give protection to the teeth construction. Each tactics – the direct regeneration of worn cusps and the overlay preparation – had been skilled within the ultimate hands-on consultation.

Throughout the hands-on classes, questions from everywhere the arena had been requested by means of chat and responded reside via the audio system. The entire StyleItaliano workforce was once to be had for sensible help and recommendation to make certain that the members would go back house with the talents they want to put in force the introduced tactics of their dental workplaces instantly. The Seefeld members – together with a bunch of virtual content material creators from Germany and the UK – had been all of the tournament and the brand new views received on mastering teeth put on.
