Mastering Direct Restorations: Structural Management, Cracks, and Fiber Reinforcement

Join Us: Saturday, April 26th, 12:00 pm Eastern Time / 9:00 am Pacific Los Angeles Time

What You Will Learn

For individual teeth, restorative choices are driven by many factors, but more than anything else, it is by the presence or absence of cracks and/or endodontic treatment, and the amount of remaining tooth structure. By carefully managing tooth structure, and with the use of composite resin, strategically laminated continuous UHMWPE fiber and discontinuous short fiber composite, we can create a new class of direct restoration that better manage tensile forces, resists and deflects cracks and lessens the effects of polymerization shrinkage on remaining tooth structure. These techniques have changed the way I see teeth.

Join me on Saturday, April 26th. I am looking forward to sharing these concepts with you.

About Dr. Grant Chyz

Affiliate Instructor, Department of Restorative Dentistry
Collaborator in B4T Research Lab
University of Washington, Seattle, WA

Dr. Chyz earned his D.D.S. degree in 1983 from the University of Michigan and established a clinical practice in Seattle, Washington. This spring, after 41 years, Dr. Chyz decided to transition from his downtown Seattle private practice to spend more time at University of Washington, doing research related to optimizing structural restorative dental techniques in Dr. Alireza Sadr’s B4T research lab. Dr. Chyz has been involved in various study clubs over the years. He gained valuable insight into global dental products when working with 3M-ESPE on Filtek Supreme (Z350).

Most importantly, Grant first laminated Ribbond to internal tooth structure, using a technique that has recently been named the “Dr. Chyz Technique” by Ribbond, in 1999 – giving him a unique, long-term perspective on the value of fiber lamination to augment direct restorations. He is a passionate advocate for structurally sound, tooth-preserving dentistry.
