Porcelain Veneers: A Look at the Current State of Clinical and Research Information

Presented by Carl Driscoll, DMD

Dr. Carl F. Driscoll received his DMD from Tufts University in 1977. He completed a General Practice Residency at Ft. Meade, MD in 1978 and received his prosthodontic training at Letterman Army Medical Center in San Francisco in 1986. In 1990, he completed a Fellowship in Maxillofacial Prosthetics at the National Naval Dental School in Bethesda, MD.  Dr. Driscoll currently serves as an Associate Professor at the University of Maryland Dental School and as Director of the Prosthodontic Residency program. Dr. Driscoll is a Diplomate of the American Board of Prosthodontics and a Fellow of the American College of Prosthodontists. Dr. Driscoll has given over 200 presentations nationally and internationally and has authored numerous papers, abstracts and book chapters.

Esthetics is now the major player in marketing for dental practices. This presentation will review those factors that are key to a successful esthetic result with special emphasis on utilization of veneers. An evidenced-based approach will be presented to further the attendee’s knowledge base, not only in the technical aspects, but in combination with the science and art of dentistry. The attendee will be exposed to many different clinical examples of patients in need of esthetic improvement and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of various treatment modalities. This presentation is suitable for general dentists, prosthodontists, periodontists, hygienists and assistants.

Objectives:

Upon completion of this seminar, participants will be better able to:

  • Learn the important factors that are required in a highly esthetic-driven patient

  • Learn methods to differentiate the simple esthetic solution from unrealistic patient expectations

  • Learn clinical techniques to make veneer treatment more predictable

  • Learn evidence-based information relative to veneer success
