Overview and Learning Objectives

Morning Lecture - Cosmetics and Veneers

The consumer’s interest in cosmetic dentistry, specifically veneers, is increasing every year with billions of dollars being spent to obtain a perfect smile. The ability to place believable porcelain veneers is crucial to a good cosmetic dental program. The numerous dental products and myriad of materials that are currently available to dentists can yield some incredible results but can often be overwhelming and or confusing. Without a blueprint and instructions to show the process from start to finish and all the steps in between, it can be quite challenging for many. This presentation will discuss all of the steps necessary to fabricate amazing, life like veneers and when to utilize them.

After completing this course, participants should be better able to do:

Veneer preparation design
