CONTEMPORARY MONOLITHIC CERAMICS AND THE DIGITAL DENTAL TEAM: the evolution of ceramic technologies with the human touch
This lecture will cover the current evolution of aesthetic monolithic ceramic materials
highlighting their material and aesthetic properties.
This lecture introduces a concept called the “DIGITAL DENTAL TEAM” DDT for short. The concept DDT incorporates digital processes in the aesthetic anterior workflow but with an analog “final touch” to the restorations to create an ideal individualistic customisation of the surface textures and surface colour (THERE WILL BE A SEPARATE COURSE OFFERED ON THE STEP BY STEP TECHNIQUES FOR THE FINAL TOUCH).
The “team” consists of digital scanning technology, digital printing, the dentist, the highest evolution of machinable monolithic materials, and an and a highly qualified technician who can apply the final artistic touch to make a believable restoration.
The final touch comprising of texture, colorise, glaze and polish(again, these techniques will be covered in full hands on detail in a separate 2-day course with Dentinal tubules.
The lecture will also cover evidence based adhesive materials and techniques for glass
ceramics and zirconia.
