Who it is for

Built for pediatric dentists, and general dentists who treat children.

One goal: you return to patient care the following week able to restore anterior and posterior teeth in the primary and permanent dentition, a new way.

The Bioclear Method places warmed composite with an injection molding technique into clear, anatomical tooth-form matrices. Over two days you see it demonstrated, then do it yourself at the bench, in a small group.

The standard course has no prerequisites. The Advanced course requires the Bioclear Pediatrics intro course.

Learning objectives

What you'll learn over two days.

Day 1: Posterior

  • Transitioning from GV Black to Clark Class II non-retentive preparations designed specifically for composite

Course description.

This two-day hands-on course offers comprehensive, practice-changing, esthetically driven training in composite-based restorations for pediatric dentists. The Bioclear Method uses warmed composite and injection molding with clear, anatomical tooth-form matrices.

Designed specifically for pediatric dentists and general dentists who treat children, the course prepares participants to return to patient care the following week with a new skill set for restoring anterior and posterior teeth in the primary and permanent dentition.

Most courses are held at the Bioclear Pediatric Learning Center in Livermore, California. The 6,000-square-foot facility was designed for small-group, hands-on courses and also functions as a pediatric dental practice. State-of-the-art dental and audiovisual equipment supports the learning experience. Select courses are held at partner locations throughout the year.

Joshua J. Solomon, D.D.S., M.S., DABPD, FAAPD

Director, Bioclear Pediatric Learning Center

A second-generation dentist, he earned his B.S. in Biological Sciences and his D.D.S. at the University of the Pacific, then completed a two-year specialty residency at the University of Texas Dental Branch in Houston and a Master's program with the Department of Oral-Biomaterials.

He first taught restorative courses using metal matrices. In 2017, after completing the Bioclear Learning Center's Core Posterior course in Tacoma, he had what he calls his "existential restorative crisis." Since then the Bioclear Method has been the foundation of every composite restoration he places. He began teaching regional courses for Bioclear in 2019, is Bioclear Master Track certified and Full Faculty, and has presented to thousands of general and pediatric dentists.
