Vertiprep Revision and How To Go Digital for Vertical Preps – PDP089 Protrusive Dental Podcast

    • Medicine

Vertiprep? Dirtyprep? There are some Dentists who will literally opt for an adhesive onlay for every indirect restoration. That's not cool - they are not a panacea. On the flipside, there is a breed of Dentists who identify as 'Verticalists'. They will vertiprep their grandmother if they could. The answer lies somewhere in the middle - everything is case dependent. In this episode, with the return of my friend Jorge Cardoso, we revise Vertical Preparation, decision making protocols for indirect and then explore the nuances of digital scanning for vertical preps (even if they are super subgingival).

Protrusive Dental Pearl: Impressions vs Digital. Remember, if you're going digital, you need to be more aggressive in your tissue retraction compared to impressions. If the light from the scanner tip does not reach beyond your margin, it will not be recorded. Whereas with impressions, the wash material can flow beyond the margin and capture the sulcus, even if you cannot see it.
