Ep. 775 - Mastering Adhesive Dentistry: Enamel, Dentin, and Smarter Bonding Decisions

Episode notes

Are you truly maximizing your bonding protocols or just following the same routine regardless of the clinical scenario? Understanding what substrate you're bonding to - enamel, dentin, or sclerotic dentin - should fundamentally change your approach, yet many clinicians default to the same technique every time. Dr. Nicholas Marongiu brings exceptional credentials to this discussion. He earned his DDS from Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, completed a General Practice Residency at West Los Angeles VA Hospital, and received postgraduate training at UCLA School of Dentistry. Dr. Marongiu is an accredited member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, placing him among fewer than 500 dentists worldwide to achieve this certification. He maintains hospital privileges at Scripps Memorial Hospital, serves as adjunct faculty at UC San Diego School of Medicine, and holds licensure for both oral and IV conscious sedation. He practices full-time at Scripps Center for Dental Care, a comprehensive multi-specialty practice in La Jolla, California.
