Anterior I.

The first part of this hands-on training is dedicated to Anterior CAD/CAM dentistry and smile makeovers. The program is designed in an "A to Z" style, where participants will be guided through the entire sequence of aesthetic rehabilitation, from case planning to the bonding of anterior restorations.

Participants will learn all the steps related to smile reconstruction, from smile design to clinical performance, including:

Photo/Face Scan Protocols and Smile Design Concepts
Microscope-driven Preparation
Scanning Techniques
3D Printing Mock-up Restorations or Wax-up Models
Digital Functional Approach/3D Mandible Movements Recording (ModJaw)
Digital Face Bow and Digital Articulator
Rubberdamology
Finishing, Polishing, and Individualization of Milled or 3D Printed Restorations
Full Bonding Procedure of Veneers and Crowns

The second part is dedicated to the Additive workflow for Permanent Restorations and Full Digital Dentures. It includes a specific algorithm for scanning a full arch edentulous jaw, a 360-degree scanning protocol for an existing denture, scanning registration of jaw relations, options and the value of printed denture prototypes, individualization options for denture teeth and soft tissue imitation, and the importance of exact post-production and potential failure.

Day 1: Planning / Function

Photo protocols (Smartphone / DSLR digital) and Smile Design tools
Face Scan Protocol – treatment planning and production using 3D patient data / CBCT scan
Importance of pre-preparation scan – how to efficiently use gingiva mask scan guidance
Different versions of Mock-ups
3D Printers - manufacturing dental models for BioCopy Techniques
Digital guide for preparation
Importance of exact buccal bite scan
Application of Digital Facebow and its connection with the Virtual articulator
MODJAW – Real-time jaw motion – Dynamic occlusion

Day 2: Preparation / Design / Milling / Printing

Rubber dam / Split dam technique before preparation
Soft tissue management options tailored for digital impressions
Microscope-driven preparation (2 teeth - 1 veneer and 1 crown) with a special focus on dentist/assistant ergonomic position and working in an indirect view
Analysis of preparation using CEREC software tools
IDS – Immediate Dentin Sealing
Scanning Techniques / Tips & Tricks
Designing using the Biocopy mode inLab / Exocad libraries
Milling versus 3D printing

Day 3: Individualizations / Bonding - Luting

Rubberdamology – advanced rubber dam techniques for multiple restorations
Finishing and polishing techniques for milled and printed restorations
Optical Illusions / Stain and Glaze Technique
Palatal cut-back / imitation of the transparent incisal edge of printed restorations
Bonding / Fundamental procedures for indirect bonded restorations

Day 4: 3D Printed Full Denture

Practical Guide to Scanning Edentulous Patients for Dentures
Individual Tray impressions versus Intraoral scan of the edentulous jaw
Scanning registration of jaw relations
Options and the value of printed Denture prototypes
Individualization options for denture teeth and soft tissue imitation.
Importance of exact post-processing of 3D Printed Dentures and potential failure.
