Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics organised a guest lecture on “All About All Ceramics”on 2.3.19 presented by Dr. G. Lambodharan, Reader, Department of Prosthodontics, Meenakshi Ammal Dental College and Hospital, Chennai. Successful application of all-ceramic materials depends on the clinicians ability to select both the appropriate material and cementation protocol that satisfy the patient’s needs and expectations. The selection of a particular ceramic system should be based on physical properties such as strength, fracture resistance, wear resistance, long-term outcomes as well as esthetic considerations. The lecture focused on the fact that the dentist must understand these materials and systems so he or she can educate patients and present appropriate treatment options.
