Ceramics or staining?
One three-unit bridge to compare facial layering, 3D staining with micro-layering and simple staining.
Explore the programmeEssential CAD/CAM
Receive cases by email or through the main cloud platforms, centralise files and communications, design a crown, an inlay/onlay, a veneer and a wax-up, then prepare a model for 3D printing.
Explore the programmePressed ceramics
Three IPS e.max Press restorations: one stained crown, one micro-layered crown and one partial restoration.
Explore the programmeCAD/CAM production
Design implant cases and a bar in exocad Bar Module, then prepare a controlled CAM production.
Explore the programmeAdvanced ceramics
Reproduce a central incisor on a coping and harmonise four layered units with two stained canines.
Explore the programmeAdvanced implant bridge
An implant bridge on thimbles with six teeth, completed by an anterior case combining a veneer on 11 with an implant-supported crown on 21.

The programme at a glance
Reproduce a central incisor on a coping and harmonise four layered units with two stained canines.
Who is it for?
Experienced ceramists and dental technicians who work independently in layering and finishing.
Prerequisites
Master the complete production of a single ceramic restoration.
What you will produce
- Layer a single central incisor on a coping from a reference.
- Layer four units while preserving internal effects and aesthetic continuity.
- Stain two canines and harmonise the anterior composition.
Programme outline
Day 1
Single central incisor on a coping
shape, function, optical behaviour and natural integration; photographic assessment, shade, chroma, brightness and translucency.
coping and ceramic-space checks, ceramic mapping, connection, central-incisor layering and first firing.
Day 2
Four layered units
study of shapes, axes, proportions, embrasures and function; organisation of ceramics, dentine volumes, incisal zones and internal effects.
first firing, comparison with the reference, optical and morphological corrections, second firing and harmonisation.
Day 3
Two stained canines and final harmony
external characterisation of the canines, brightness, depth, proximal transitions and smile continuity.
morphology, macrotexture, microtexture, reflection lines, glazing, mechanical polishing and final comparison with the photographic reference.
