Layering front resins requires a deep understanding of materials to achieve realistic and natural restorations. This video simplifies the process by explaining the three essential types of resins:
1. Opaque/Dentin Resins: These first-layer resins create the base for anterior or posterior restorations. Variations like ‘body’ resins offer less opacity for further customization.
2. Chromatic Resins: Used as a second layer, they provide defined shades (e.g., A2, B2) to replicate natural teeth.
3. Achromatic Resins: These third-layer resins serve as covers without specific shades, ensuring a polished and seamless finish.
Using examples from my book, I dive into translucency, opacity, and layering techniques to provide a strong foundation for effective stratification. Perfect for dental professionals looking to refine their restoration techniques.
