Winners of Ceram∙X® Case Contest 2013

The DENTSPLY CeramX Case Contest is a long running competition aimed at dental students wishing to practice composite layering techniques with the innovative Ceram?X nano-ceramic single and dual layer composite.  The students supply clinical poster cases to the DENTSPLY judging panel for the chance to win prizes including an Apple iPad, Amazon Kindle and Apple iPod Nano.

DENTSPLY is pleased to announce the results of the Ceram?X Case Contest 2013 as follows

:

Rebecca Morgan with Simon abbey, Key Account Manager at DENTSPLY

Winner – Rebecca Morgan, UCLAN

The case from Rebecca Morgan was a first class example of how modern resin composite materials can be used to restore worn dentitions in an efficient and relatively economic fashion - with dramatic aesthetic and functional improvement.  Judges were impressed by the composite build-ups, use of a silicone template constructed from a pre-operative wax-up, the establishment of canine guidance and the greatly improved form and excellent aesthetic appearance of the teeth. 

Rebecca’s case also achieved fifth place in the World Final.

Second Place – Julia Bernardo, Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry

Matthew Jerreat, Julia Bernardo from Peninsula College and Kate Caple, Key Account Manager at DENTSPLY

The judges felt that the build-up of the lateral incisors and the reduction of anterior spacing n Julia’s case was carried out with a high level of skill. The final aesthetic outcome was impressive with excellent contouring, colour matching and polishing.

Third Place – Brendan Quinn, University College Cork

The judges felt Brendan’s case was complex with an excellent aesthetic outcome.

Honorary Mention – Hassan Adi, Birmingham Dental School

Hassan received an honorary mention as it was a strong case with good quality photography.
