Quotes

“Bacteria loves these areas with rough edges.” 

“Restorations have an expected lifespan.” 

“With modern chemistry we are finding ways to prevent bacterial adhesion at these sites and help make permanent restorations more realistic.” 

“If the resin chips or fractures even the new exposed material is protected.” 

“If it's too late for prevention at least now we can include prevention in the restoration to avoid secondary decay.”
