Mastering Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry

Mastering Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry 2025 is organized by The Pankey Institute and will be held from Nov 20 - 23, 2025 at The Pankey Institute, Key Biscayne, Florida, United States of America.

Description:
Accomplishing exquisite all ceramic restorative results is a combination of preparation technique, materials selection and technical execution. We will walk through the process from beginning (treatment planning) to the end (seating the restorations). Tips for technical success and the knowledge to execute these cases with exquisite results will be presented.

If dental aesthetics is the subject, digital photography is the language used to communicate with all members of the team. Artistic lighting and good photography techniques set you apart as a clinician or dental ceramist. We will teach both intra-oral and portrait photography techniques that will allow you to present the best possible images of the work you complete on your patients. We will have fun practicing this on each other!
