Efficiency & Excellence: Universal Materials for Modern Practice

After completing this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Identify key properties and performance characteristics of universal dental materials.


• Overview of research and clinical evidence supporting the efficacy of universal materials.


• Demonstrate optimal application techniques for universal adhesives, composites, and cements to enhance clinical efficiency and treatment outcomes

New technologies in universal materials no longer force clinicians to compromise bond strengths, aesthetics, or durability for convenience and efficiency. Advancements in the chemistry and filler particle network allow for versatility, better handling, and enhanced shade matching. This webinar provides an overview of recent improvements and clinical applications of universal dental adhesives, composites, and resin cements. A review of research will demonstrate the performance of these universal materials, such as their strong, reliable bonds across various substrates, enhanced mechanical properties, and predictable aesthetic outcomes.

The chemistry, mechanical, and optical properties behind these dynamic materials will be explored; further illustrating how this comprehensive and universal approach ensures clinicians can confidently address a wide range of restorative needs. Case overviews will illustrate optimal application techniques, emphasizing simplified protocols and broad compatibility. Participants will learn to effectively utilize these materials for exceptional treatment outcomes and increased efficiency..
