Finishing of composites and laminates.

Regardless of the color, shape or attention to detail, there must be sufficient time to adequately finish all restorations. Both esthetics and function can best be satisfied when the restoration acquires its maximal finish. In the final analysis, not only will the restoration look better, but it will look better for a longer period of time. Life expectancy of the restoration may, in fact, be directly dependent on just how well this task is accomplished.
