As teeth age, they become worn, brittle and discolored. This is a commonly overlooked and untreated problem with many older adults because they are reluctant to undergo traditional and painful restoration procedures. But patients don't need to fear the dentist any longer.
Noninvasive esthetic dentistry pioneer Dr. Robert Ibsen has developed the ZERO-PAIN™ SmileSimplicity procedure. Encompassing breakthrough cosmetic and structural restoration techniques, the SmileSimplicity procedure preserves healthy, natural tooth structure. That enables dentists to restore and strengthen teeth while producing more vital, youthful-looking smiles without a single anesthetic injection or removal of sensitive tooth structure.
Most veneer techniques recommend grinding away 1 mm of natural tooth to make it easier for the laboratory technician and to create room for the porcelain restoration, but this method usually requires an injection and removal of a great deal of tooth structure. Removing tooth structure can sometimes damage pulp and potentially require a root canal.
Committed to bringing his preservative, patient-friendly SmileSimplicity technique to his colleagues, Dr. Ibsen hosts monthly continuing education (CE) webinars focusing on the design and noninvasive placement of bonded porcelain restorations that are durable and esthetic. These online SmileSimplicity CE courses cover a broad range of topics, including case selection, adhesion, color correction, finishing, polishing, post-orthodontic treatment, and solutions for worn, and esthetically incomplete dentition.
The upcoming live webinar on January 13, 2011, will focus on tooth-strengthening and tooth-protection with the SmileSimplicity procedure. For more information, visit www.SmileSimplicity.com, email [email protected], or call (805) 346-8100.
