Dr. David Clark

Dr. David Clark received his dental degree in 1986 from the University of Washington School of Dentistry, home to some of the legends of cast gold such as the late Dr. Richard Tucker. Dr. Clark's goal with composite dentistry has always been to elevate its longevity and health to the “Gold Standard” of his predecessors. To accomplish that, he embarked on a quest to develop modern cavity preparations, matrices, wedges, separators, and filling and polishing methods to bring composite dentistry out of the dark ages. He intends to create the same pride and confidence in composite that has always been part of the legacy of traditional cast gold. 25 years of clinical microscope dentistry in a hometown practice, lab research, and hundreds of lectures and hands on courses has enabled him to produce matrix systems and methods that are reinventing, not just the way we do restorative dentistry, but more importantly, the way that we think about restorative dentistry.
