How many of us are using adhesive bonding systems every single day, but don’t fully understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes? We follow the steps—we scrub, air thin, light cure… But do we really know why? And more importantly, are we adjusting based on the clinical situation in front of us? Because when we don’t fully understand adhesion, we’re probably not taking full advantage of the materials and techniques designed for specific scenarios. Today we'll dive deeper into all of this to get a better understanding of how we can optimize our bonds and minimize our failures. Our guest is Dr. Nick Marongiu. He practices full-time as a general dentist at Scripps Center for Dental Care in La Jolla, California, a comprehensive multi-specialty practice built on interdisciplinary, patient-centered care. He has a passion for cosmetic dentistry and is an accredited member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD).
