Natural Porcelain Veneers Hands-on Course
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW !
The biggest challenge when building a new smile is to achieve complete integration using porcelain veneers. By an extensive experience in oral rehabilitation and restorative dentistry, Dr. Felipe has been develop this predictable technique using Digital Dentistry and several points that must be connected to increase the appearance of each new smile. We already know that the most important thing in this process is the connection between laboratory and practice.

However, this communication sometimes is not so clear and fast as it could be. But, the extensive knowledge connected to an amazing digital technology and ceramic materials developed in the past few years is probably the answer for clinicians that expect to improve your skills in oral rehabilitation and deliver the best results to your patients.
During the course you will have the opportunity to follow step-by-step all the sequence realized by Dr. Felipe, watched directly and transmitted by camera to the screen using clinical cases to share the technique and workshops to simulate the most usual clinical situations that can be perfectly replied in your practice.
By the hands-on class the attendants will practice every important steps like preps, digital impression, veneers and smile design, make-up, cement selection and cementation.
By theoretical class the attendees will receive the whole information about porcelain veneers, including the complete Dr. Felipe’s workflow exposed through several clinical cases and practice by hands-on class every important step to achieve the best natural final result, like: Hands-on: Preps, block selection, scanning, veneer design, milling, adjustments and texture, make-up and cementation
Hands-on: Preps, block selection, scanning, veneer design, milling, adjustments and texture, make-up and cementation
