About the Course

The evolution of composite materials now allows clinicians to stratify the tooth individually and to recreate the natural appearance and harmony of the dentition.

A modern aesthetic material must ensure:

The reproduction of all natural effects of different dental tissues

The optical behavior of the natural tooth: reflection and refraction

Predictability of the final result

Long-lasting esthetic and functional results

The rationale behind each clinical decision is crucial when selecting restorative and prosthetic materials and defining how they are used in the dental office and laboratory. It is essential to establish a clear workflow for tooth reconstruction — one that preserves natural morphology and respects both function and esthetics.

The evolution of materials and digital technologies, combined with traditional expertise, makes it possible to achieve ideal outcomes even in complex cases through careful planning of the laboratory procedures.

As digital protocols in dentistry, together with next-generation materials, become increasingly common and widespread, workflow control has become paramount for optimizing the lab routine — especially during the key planning phase of our work.

The digital workflow helps simplify the analog procedures and take full advantage of the versatile characteristics of these high-performance ceramic hybrids, which ensure cost-effectiveness and faster manufacturing times, as well as excellent esthetic results and outstanding mechanical performance.

These highly effective protocols help improve lab/clinic synergy and give technicians the opportunity to actively intervene during the chairside digital acquisition phase, through intra-oral scanning and improved morphological and functional design.
