Anterior Bonded Restorations, Laminate Veneers, Anterior Esthetic Restorations Protocols, Tooth Preparation, Esthetic cases from A to Z, Updates on esthetic dentistry materials and protocols with Dr. GALiP GÜREL

Price: 1800 EUR without VAT

As the popularity of aesthetic dentistry increases, growing numbers of patients are seeking treatment for the improvement of unaesthetic anterior dentition. 

The acceleration in dental, ceramic and bonding materials’ development has made conservative tooth preparation and restorative procedures possible that were never imaginable before, especially in the anterior region. 

Creating the precision in terms of the preparation, fit and the aesthetic final outcome needs serious treatment planning which is different for each case… Designing a new smile consists of many steps which are very important and if followed right, produce predictable success. The key to aesthetic excellence requires patient communication as well as the communication with the laboratory and the specialists from the beginning of the case till the end. 

In today’s dentistry success depends on interdisciplinary team work. Every member of the team (including the specialists, lab technicians and the patient) should be aware of the treatment planning and the end result from the beginning. Every effort should be spent to bring the teeth to their natural position on the dental arch, hence creating enough space for the restoration to be received so that the aim should be minimum tooth preperation. After that stage, in order to achieve a very precise and predictable tooth preparation, wax-up, silicon indexes and related techniques such as APR (Aesthetic Pre Recontouring), APT (Aesthetic Pre-evaluative Temporaries) and preparation through the APTs are extremely crucial. This eliminates all the possible mistakes and destruction of the depth cutters that could have been done if the tooth was to be prepared without realizing the aging affects on the enamel (volumetric enamel loss) or their unappropriate teeth positions on the dental arch.

In this specific course, the tips and tricks for minimal invasion during tooth preparation, necessary tooth reductions to enhance delicate incisal edge positions, inter-dental spaces and gingival embrasures, a simplified method of very durable and soft tissue friendly provisionals will be discussed and practiced by the attendees, in every detail.
