This video covers two essential types of resin repair: immediate and post-polishing. Immediate repairs are performed during the restoration process, ensuring strong adhesion by cleaning the interface properly. Post-polishing repairs address minor fractures or chips that occur after finishing and polishing. The steps include aspirating around the fracture area with a normal granulation tip, applying or skipping blasting depending on the case, and using pure adhesives like Helio Bond without polymerizing before adding the resin. The video also emphasizes the importance of techniques like conditioning with phosphoric acid for exposed dentin and skipping this step for cohesive resin fractures. These insights offer practical guidance for handling different repair scenarios, ensuring the durability and aesthetics of dental restorations.
