Cervical Margin Relocation; from a different perspective

Posterior proximal cavities often extend below the surrounding gingival margin, and if an indirect restoration is indicated, this may complicate impression taking/scanning and adhesive luting. Elevating this cervical margin coronally is called Cervical Margin Relocation (CMR); which was first proposed in 1998 and became popular among clinicians. The small amount of composite applied to deep cervically located margins has the goal to facilitate impression taking and luting procedures. However, the literature supporting CMR is scarce, especially regarding clinical studies. In this lecture, the evolution of CMR and its clinical application procedures will be discussed.

Serhat Köken graduated from the School of Dentistry, University of Marmara (Istanbul) in 1998. Since 2001, he has practiced general dentistry at his private clinic in Istanbul. He completed his Ph.D education in Dental Biotechnology at the University of Siena in 2020. Serhat Köken has presented at national and international meetings on both the technical and artistic aspects of anterior direct resin restorations as well as hands-on courses on composite resin artistry and dental photography. Serhat Köken is a tutor in the Master Program in Prosthodontics (courses: Digital Dental Photography, Anterior Direct Restorations, Posterior Direct Restorations), Department of Medical Biotechnologies, School of Dentistry, University of Siena, Italy
