Course Description:
A solid understanding of today's preparation designs and resin bonding principles across ceramic and composite treatment options is essential for predictable, long-term clinical success. This course connects EVIDENCE-BASED, proven clinical protocols that you can immediately apply in your daily practice.
Starting with esthetic principles and clinical photography, the program transitions into an extensive hands-on experience. You will learn and practice updated preparation designs for indirect resin-bonded ceramic restorations, including laminate veneers, onlays, vonlays, resin-bonded bridges. You will also perform the actual bonding steps for these restorations as well as the flowable injection technique, all presented in a practical, step-by-step format.
Over two immersive full days, this program offers a comprehensive blend of lectures and guided, hands-on training, covering current restorative materials, technologies, and clinical concepts. The small-group personalized setting ensures dynamic and meaningful interaction, skill development, and increased confidence in modern restorative workflows.
