Aesthetic Foundations I - Restoring Anterior Teeth (Sep 12 - 14, 2019)

Aesthetic Foundations I - Restoring Anterior Teeth is organized by BD Seminars and will be held from Sep 12 - 14, 2019 at The Dawson Academy UK - BD Seminars, Wirral, England, United Kingdom.

The target audience for this medical event is General Dentists, Specialists. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 23 CE Credits.

Recommended Prerequisite:
Comprehensive Examination & Records, Treatment Planning Functional Aesthetic Excellence, The Art & Science of Equilibration.

Course Description:
This hands on programme will teach each participant to perform anterior restorative procedures at the highest level. All direct and indirect options for the restoration of anterior teeth will be discussed in this programme.

Aims:
Through PowerPoint, pre-recorded patient video, and hands-on exercises, each participant will gain mastery with anterior direct resin veneers, stacked and pressed ceramic veneers, pressed ceramic crowns, anterior zirconia crowns and bridges, and porcelain fused to metal.

Additionally, the attending dentists will learn which material should be considered for each individual patient circumstance. Each participant will learn to utilize digital photographs in conjunction with the mounted diagnostic models to visualize the necessary functional and aesthetic changes and create a diagnostic wax-up. They will learn how to create preparation reduction guides, and provisional matrixes to guide them through the preparation appointment.

Course Objectives:
• Choose the correct vertical and horizontal incisal edge position for any maxillary esthetic restoration that will be in harmony with esthetics, phonetics and function.
• Choose the correct mandibular incisal position. Why this is the functional starting point, and why this is one of the most critical decisions we make!
• Fabricate preparation reduction guides to insure optimum reduction with every anterior preparation.
• Prepare teeth for a variety of materials when utilizing veneers and crowns.
Compare how to easily fabricate exquisite provisional restorations for both veneers and crowns, and how to contour them to insure optimum esthetics, phonetics, and function. This may be THE most important step in the restorative process to insure long-term success.
• Choose and communicate shade and contour to the dental laboratory.
• Evaluate the options to manage the gummy smile: when a gingivectomy or osseous surgery is optimal when changing the free gingival margins, and how to perform these procedures.
• Make optimal final impressions.
• Choose the correct cement/adhesive for each material covered in the course.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
