Dr. Robert Margeas talks about new dental materials
Abstract:
Dr. Robert Margeas: "The nanotechnology is getting closer to creating a material that has strength and the ability to be polished. I don’t feel we are quite there yet. They are much better, but do not hold a polish like the microfills. Most clinicians will accept the newer nano composites because of ease of use. In the anterior, I still prefer a sandwich technique. I use the hybrid type or nano material for strength and opacity, and overlay with a microfill material for the translucency and ability to be polished."
