About this lecture

Deep Margin Isolation and Deep Margin Elevation

Isolation isn’t just for Instagram — it’s essential to improving the performance of your adhesive restorations. In this new lecture, Dr David Alleman and Dr Davey Alleman share practical techniques for achieving reliable isolation in complex cases, including crown replacements and deep margins using copper bands. They also present deep margin elevation as a proven alternative to crown lengthening, supported by long-term research and clinical success. Learn how to adapt these techniques with detailed, step-by-step footage recorded through the Allemans’ high-magnification operating microscope. This is an expert-led lecture that balances practical case examples with the science behind each technique.
