DescriptionIt's great to welcome Professor Brian Millar to Somerset. Prof Millar (Kings College, London) will be leading this study day, addressing management of the increasing clinical problem of tooth wear. He will explain that by understanding the aetiology a diagnosis can be made leading to prevention of further damage. In some cases management requires intervention with conventional indirect restorations or the latest adhesive aesthetic materials. We will use models to practice restoring worn anterior and posterior teeth, with plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion.
