Aesthetics on Teeth and Gums

This workshop will take participants on a journey through the different techniques of individualization of highly aesthetic prostheses. We will focus on dental ceramics applied onto zirconium structure. Additionally, participants will expand their knowledge base and construction strategies for metal-free restorations. 

This program will also provide an in-depth analysis of the concepts of light and color. Saturation, value and translucency contrasts will be highlighted through effective hands-on exercises to provide solutions when determining color in the applications listed below. 
 
COVERED MAKEUP is a makeup technique covered by a thin layer of enamel, with which highly aesthetic and natural restorations are achieved with controlled reflection surfaces. 
 
ADVANCED Gingival LAYERING, study of the different ceramic masses combining the bases of conventional layered construction with the contribution of saturated ceramic masses to achieve natural three-dimensional gums with control of contraction and expressiveness. 

The program will guide you step-by-step in the following concepts: 

1. Theory of Light 
2. Morphology and design 
3. Dentogingival stratification 
4. COVERED MAKEUP 
5. External makeup 
6. Finishing and mechanical polishing

Topics Covered Will Include:

• Understand and perform additive texture techniques
• Enhance material by external make-up and layering techniques 
• Create natural aesthetics using macro and micro texture
