How to:
_ understand and identify the different etiologies of worn dentition,
_ consider the risk of treatment and the risk of no treatment, and take the right decision,
_ increase or not the VDO,
_ motivate the patient with an appropriate esthetic project,
_ choose the best materials,
_ choose the best adhesive cement.
DAY 1
_ Terminologies
_ Etiologies & global approach ; Prevalence – Classifications
_ Occlusal aspects (Vertical Dimension Occlusion, Intermaxillary relationship, Centric relation, Maximum intercuspidal contacts)
_ Clinical approach of the VDO
_ Esthetic approach of the smile (esthetic analysis & project)
_ Temporization & clinical approach to therapeutic care (full mock-up, partial mockup, bisacryl resins or preheated composites)
_ Preparations: veneerlays/overlays/partial crowns/360° veneers or bilaminar veneers
_ Ceramic and adhesives
_ Cementing procedures
_ Follow-up (bite splint, occlusion…)
DAY 2 (Hands-on workshop)
_ LIVE DEMO: JIG – bite registration / Facebow
_ Build of translucent silicone keys on the wax-up
_ Build of the posterior mock-up with preheated / flow composites
_ Build of the bisacryl mock-up for the anterior region
_ Preparation of the overlays on molars
_ Preparation of veenerlays on premolars
_ Preparation of 360° veneers for the incisive / canine region
_ Bisacryl temporization
