This video explores two key aspects of dental restorations: beveling and interfaces. The first tip focuses on creating a rounded, infinite bevel to ensure a seamless transition between restoration and tooth. Proper beveling techniques, including the use of diamond burs, are demonstrated to avoid visible lines and grayish interfaces. The second tip highlights the importance of covering half of the bevel with dentin during restoration to conceal potential lines and ensure a natural finish. These techniques help enhance the aesthetic and functional outcomes of Class IV restorations, especially in cases of fractured centrals or significant tooth loss. The video provides practical insights and step-by-step guidance for dental professionals aiming to refine their restorative skills.
