Module 3: The Art & Science of Ceramics
Comprehensive Anterior & Posterior Indirect Restorations
3 days
R24,500
22-23 May 2026 CPT
This module equips clinicians with the essential skills to ensure precision and excellence across the full range of indirect restorations — veneers, inlays, onlays, overlays, vonlays, partial-coverage
restorations and crowns. It incorporates advanced preparation techniques, including vertical preparation, and a biologically driven protocol to optimise long-term success. Through extensive
hands-on training, participants refine their techniques for anterior and posterior all-ceramic restorations, gaining confidence in delivering high-quality, aesthetically pleasing results that balance
aesthetic judgement with clinical execution.
The module also covers the restoration of endodontically treated teeth, focusing on the endo-restorative protocol and techniques. Participants learn how to assess restorability, make sound structural decisions, and rebuild compromised teeth predictably — including ferrule management and core build-ups — with clear guidance on when a post is useful and when it is not.
This module covers:
- Material Selection & Indications — the properties of different all-ceramic materials and their clinical applications
- Advanced Tooth Preparation Techniques — precise anterior and posterior guidelines, including vertical preparation
- Veneers, Inlays, Onlays, Overlays, Vonlays & Crowns — case planning and techniques tailored to the specific indication
- Digital Workflow — scanning, design and integration of CAD/CAM technology
- Laboratory Communication — creating effective lab prescriptions, sharing 3D files and collaborating for success
- Biologically Driven Restorative Protocols — strategies to enhance soft tissue integration and long-term success
- Adhesive & Cementation Techniques — best practices for bonding all-ceramic restorations for durability and longevity
- Occlusion & Functional Considerations — balancing aesthetics with function to prevent complications
- Aesthetic & Shade-Matching Principles — techniques for seamless integration with natural dentition
- Restoring Endodontically Treated Teeth — the endo-restorative protocol and techniques for predictable, long-lasting results
- Restorability & Structural Decision-Making — assessing which teeth can be restored and how to rebuild them
- Ferrule & Core Build-Ups — rebuilding compromised tooth structure to support the final restoration
Ideal for clinicians seeking to deliver highly aesthetic, predictable and long-lasting indirect restorations across a wide range of clinical situations, supported by sound endodontic foundations.
