Lecture Synopsis
Ceramic and enamel beauty: true synergy.
“You will never have a second chance to make a first impression of yourself”. The need to appear has pushed our society to the research of beauty at any cost and with any mean. In the last decades , the medias have pushed as far as possible the idea of beauty and the “ideal beauty”. Dentistry has followed this trend, showing more and more aesthetic treatments that are sometimes too aggressive with the only “excuse” of improving a smile.
Starting from the concept that dentistry is, first of all, a branch of medicine, the aim of this lecture is to give some possible options that are much more conservative, following the principle that the first goal is to restore preserving as much as possible sound tissues.
The so called “minimal invasive dentistry” can be extended to ceramics, whenever possible: in many cases, additional veneers can be the treatment of choice rather than full veneers. The lecture is focused on various cases fully explained in all the steps, from the treatment planning to the final result: the audience will have new tools to consider treatment planning in a more conservative way if compared to traditional “full veneers”, keeping the aesthetic quality that can be achieved with porcelain. New materials in restorative dentistry, together with the “old” ceramic, are the tools to create/re-create enamel.
