By the end of the course, participants will be able to:1. Select and correctly use various restorative materials in high-risk caries patients
2. Evaluate the controversial step-wise and "incomplete" caries removal protocols
3. Conservatively remove caries-infected dentin using indicator dyes and ceramic burs
