LECTURE

ART AND SCIENCE OF ESTHETIC DENTISTRY: A COMPREHENSIVE JOURNEY FROM SINGLE SHADE MATCH TO FULL MOUTH REHABILITATION

Shade Selection: Learn the importance of taking shades at the beginning of treatment, using color-corrected light sources, and optimal light intensity. Discover how to incorporate bleaching into your workflow for optimal results.
Shade Communication: Explore the essential tools and techniques for effective shade communication, including shade tab images, polarized images, stump shade images, color maps, and old restoration pieces.
Considerations for Shade Matching: Understand the nuances of shade matching, including shade (value, chroma, hue), shape, texture, surface luster, tissue control, and occlusion.
Laboratory Procedures: Gain insights into shade analysis, material selection (e.g., feldspathic, zirconia, lithium disilicate), and strategies for different ceramic materials. Learn about ceramic selection for different aspects of teeth (e.g., dentin, enamel) and effective tissue control techniques.
