Dr Bellelis has extensive expertise in his fields of implant surgery, bone grafting, implant-supported prosthetics and restorative and adhesive dentistry. His continuing education has increasingly focused on biomimetic, adhesive, and restorative dentistry in order to offer alternatives to tooth extraction. In his exclusive lecture for The Hybrid Layer, Dr Bellelis illustrates how polyethylene fibres can be used strategically to manage polymerisation stress and preserve compromised tooth structure.
