"You Can't Always Get What You Want! Solving Restorative Problems in Clinical Practice"

In clinical practice, patients can present with situations far from ideal and yet we are called upon to treat them. This presentation will take you on a journey with several patients that had challenging cases which easily could have shown up in your office. Diagnosis, treatment planning, case presentations, and finally, how excellent results were obtained from less than desirable beginnings will be discussed.
