Outcome-Based Treatment:  An Interdisciplinary Approach to Patient-Centered Outcomes

•  

  A comprehensive assessment establishing the diagnosis and development of the treatment plan, including possible alternatives, is essential to achieving an outcome that develops appropriate occlusion and function, and meets the esthetic expectations of the patient.

   

  A facially generated treatment-planning model will be presented.  This model will be used to guide the development of the treatment plan and determine the procedures necessary to meet the desired outcomes of the case.

   

  Preservation of tooth structure should be the primary goal when restoring natural teeth. Understanding the esthetic expectation of the patient and the functional stresses that will be placed on the restorative material are paramount in establishing a predictable and longer term outcome.  Clinical techniques and material options will be presented for indirect restorations to accomplish treatment goals and achieve patient-centered outcomes.

  
  

  Learning objectives:

   

• ·      Treatment plan to achieve esthetic and functional outcomes.
• ·      Understand the rationale for outcome-based preparation design.
• ·      Update restorative materials for veneers and crowns.
• ·      How to collaborate with your laboratory to achieve the desired outcome.
