Dr. Javier Tapia-Guadix, DDS, CG Artist

Javier Tapia Guadix was born in 1978 in Madrid, Spain. He graduated from the European University of Madrid with a dental degree in 2003 and served as an associate professor in the Prosthetics Department in 2004. In 2005, he began his career as a professional computer graphics artist, specialising in illustration, animation, and application development. That same year, he was honoured with the Collegiate Merit Award by the Spanish College of Dentists from the 1st Region.

In 2010, Javier co-founded the Bio-Emulation group with Panaghiotis Bazos and Gianfranco Politano. This international group comprises experts in biomimetic dentistry, including clinicians, researchers, and technicians. He also works as a consultant and developer for various dental companies including GC and Polydentia and has been a member of the GC Europe Restorative Advisory Board since 2010. He is also key opinion leader for several companies including GC, Zeiss, EVE rotary, Polydentia, Velopex and LM instruments.

caso clinico

The patient came to our practice for a routine check-up. An initial analysis revealed a class II carious lesion on 1st and 2nd molars. We decided to eliminate the carious lesions and proceed with a direct composite restoration of the cavities.

The following case study shows the step-by-step restoration procedure using the Polydentia myQuickmat Prime sectional matrix system with integrated wedges.

1: Preoperative view of the 4th quadrant evidencing two carious lesions on 1° and 2° molars.

2: The quadrant under isolation with a rubber dam.

3: Preoperative labial view of the carious lesions. Note the different crown heights of the two teeth

4: Clinical situation after removal of the carious lesions, cleaning of the proximal area and disinfection.

5: Clinical situation after the restoration of the 1st molar – this simple procedure is not object of the present study and therefore not shown.

6: Molar #47 equipped with Quickmat Prime matrix and myRing Prime.

7: Thanks to their “flamingo shape”, the integrated wedges of the myTines Prime easily slide interproximally self-centring the system even in the presence of teeth with different crown heights. The bent ring doesn’t interfere with adjacent teeth.

8: The integrated wedges of the myTines Prime separate the teeth and shape the matrix cervically whilst the tines form the matrix very effectively on the proximal walls.

9: Buccal view evidencing the rotation of myTines Prime extremities to adapt the matrix even in case of different tooth morphologies

10: Etching of the cavity.

11: Restoration of the proximal wall on molar #47.

conclusioni

The myQuickmat Prime system simplifies the protocol for Class II posterior restorations making the entire process easier and faster.
The myTines Prime naturally guide insertion and stabilize the myRing Prime making impossible the ring from slipping out.
The integrated wedges of the myTines perfectly fulfil the function of teeth separators (bilateral) and shape the matrix cervically. They don’t make you regret the wedge at all.
The Quickmat Prime matrix with its anatomical curvature cervical to occlusal, design a natural curvature and a contact point close to the equator.
