In this engaging one-hour CE webinar, participants will explore two distinct techniques for creating direct composite veneers. Attendees will gain insight into the methodical, layer-by-layer approach of “The Builder,” focused on controlled anatomy and shade development, contrasted with the artistic, sculptural style of “The Carver,” emphasizing form and contour from the outset. Through clinical demonstrations and expert commentary, this webinar highlights the strengths, indications, and nuances of each technique—empowering clinicians to expand their skill set and refine their aesthetic outcomes. Perfect for dentists looking to elevate their direct veneer artistry with practical, real-world applications.

A New Era in Conservative Esthetic and Adhesive Dentistry

This CE webinar will examine how technology has made it possible for clinicians to turn any prepped veneer case into a no-prep case, making our treatment much more conservative, and more acceptable to the patient. With today’s high-strength ceramics and adhesive cementation protocols, veneers can be made as thin as 0.3mm, making esthetic no-prep veneers possible, if the teeth are in the correct position and you're utilizing an esthetic, adhesive cement. No-prep veneers are more difficult to seat than prepped veneers or crowns, and a live demonstration will show a seating technique to mitigate those difficulties and the proper cementation protocol to create lasting, esthetic restorations.

This is not your father's composite webinar. Dr. John Gammichia, a full time private practice dentist, lives in the real world. A world where people break cusps and can't afford a build-up and onlay/crown. So what do you do? Pull it?! How about an exquisite 2,3,4 or 5 cusp composite restoration? Of course, we will start with the class I and the class II restorations. We will of adhesion and some of the current biomimetic philosophy. Then we will build from this knowledge. How do you handle uncomfortably big restorations or deep decay? How about big AND deep restorations? How about cracks? Lastly, we will discuss your obstacles to this type of dentistry...do they last or can I make any money doing dentistry this way? This CE webinar will be fun but Dr. Gammichia wants you to feel a little uncomfortable...you will be challenged. By the end of the webinar you will be saying "Holy Cow! I Didn't Know You Could do that with Composite." ( full description, bio and commercial disclosure )

There are some dentists who boldly (or quietly) love and respect a different material, but for all the rest, who say, “Yeah, but…” there must be another way. Imagine a clinical day without recurrent decay…there is a way! At the end of this CE webinar, participants should be able to:
• Contrast ormocers from composites and glass ionomers
• Defend the evidence for sealants
• Witness caries lesion arrest ( full description, bio and commercial disclosure )
