Form, Color, and Anterior Composites: It’s All About Details 2025

Form, Color, and Anterior Composites: It’s All About Details is organized by Cosmedent, Inc. and will be held from Sep 04 - 05, 2025 at Center For Esthetic Excellence, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America.

Description:
In two days, you will learn how to break down the form and color of a central incisor, lateral incisor, and canine in a systematic way. You will learn how to seamlessly restore a Class IV, build up a peg lateral, and direct veneer a canine.

After taking this course, you will have learned how to:

• Color map and select the correct composite type and shade for artistic layering.
• Properly reproduce line angles, point angles, embrasures, macro, and micro surface texture.
• Compose a natural morphological and chromatic depiction of the most important teeth in the smile frame.

Day 1

Lecture:

• Learning to see tooth anatomy three-dimensionally.
• Breaking down the smile frame – Learning landmarks that matter for composite sculpturing.
• The Class IV Restoration – Histomorphological considerations, material selection, and the Fahl Polychromatic Layering Technique.
• Pre-restorative orthodontic considerations for optimal anterior esthetic results when closing diastemas and building up peg laterals.
• The Peg Lateral Build-Up – Histomorphological considerations, material selection, and layering.

Hands-on:

• Restoring a maxillary Central Incisor – The Class IV Restoration

Day 2

Lecture:

• Restoring a maxillary Canine – Histomorphological and occlusion considerations, material selection, and layering.
• The Direct-Indirect Veneer Technique

Hands-on:

• The Peg Lateral Build-Up – A Polychromatic Approach
• Restoring a maxillary Canine – The Direct-Indirect Veneer
• Detailed finishing and polishing of Central Incisor, Lateral Incisor, and Canine.
• Achieving ideal
• Width-length ratios,
• Incisal edge position,
• Point angles,
• Line angles,
• Macrotexture, and
• Microtexture.
• Polishing restorations to an enamel-like appearance.
