OHI-S Precision in Laminate Ceramic Veneers Tooth Preparation and Adhesive Cementation Techniques

5 lessons (4h 31min)
Laminate veneer preparation and adhesive cementation protocols by Dr. Jan Hajtó – an aesthetic dentistry specialist from Germany!
Discover the key aspects of tooth preparation and adhesive cementation to achieve aesthetic and long-lasting laminate veneers in your clinical practice.
During the course, you will learn in detail about:
– Parameters and biomechanics of tooth preparation
– Direct and indirect techniques for fabricating provisional veneers
– Adhesive cementation techniques and protocols for enamel and dentin.
The OHI‑S Precision in Laminate Ceramic Veneers: Tooth Preparation and Adhesive Cementation Techniques course is best for prosthodontists, general dentists, and dental technicians who want structured, CE‑accredited training in modern veneer protocols that emphasize minimally invasive preparation, adhesive bonding, and long‑term functional and aesthetic success.
Who Should Enroll

Prosthodontists managing complex restorative and aesthetic cases requiring precision veneer placement.
General dentists performing cosmetic dentistry who want to refine preparation and cementation techniques.
Dental technicians & lab professionals fabricating ceramic veneers with exacting standards of fit and aesthetics.
Residents, fellows, and trainees in restorative dentistry or prosthodontics seeking structured veneer training.
Aesthetic dentists focusing on smile design and minimally invasive restorative approaches.

What You’ll Learn

Tooth preparation protocols: conservative, minimally invasive designs that preserve enamel and optimize bonding.
Adhesive cementation techniques: evidence‑based bonding workflows for predictable long‑term retention.
Material selection: choosing the right ceramics and adhesive systems for functional and aesthetic outcomes.
Digital integration: intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM workflows, and digital smile design for veneers.
Case‑based lessons: clinical examples demonstrating natural aesthetics and functional stability.
