video techniques from some of the top clinicians in dentistry.

In this video, Dr. Michael Miyasaki of Las Vegas reviews a conservative aesthetic case, studying the gumline and whitening needs of a young patient. Dr. Miyasaki recommends using a lab-fabricated, putty stent for this procedure. Once material is applied, the stent is fitted tightly to the top of the overbite. After just 2.5 minutes, the stent is removed, exposing the thin overlay and a recommendation is made for further treatment.
