Treat Veneers and Aesthetics efficiently, effectively and in a way that is practical, possible and profitable in general practice
Aesthetics Always Matter. But so does Function.
You will make a real difference in the lives of your patients when you give them both beautiful aesthetics and robust function and longevity.
At this course we will focus on veneers. You will prep a complete set of anterior veneers and then you will create a full set of composite anterior veneers using various prepping and composite techniques.
You will finish hours of live hands-on and have a better understanding of how to prep veneers and create beautiful anterior veneers. You will prep multiple teeth faster, you'll be more confident and you'll enjoy your dentistry more.
In this course, your Educators will show you multiple step by step approaches to prepping veneers anterior teeth.

Master your patients’ dream smile. Master direct layered veneers. This challenging and exciting module dives deep into the techniques required to treat a patient’s anterior teeth aesthetically using design and layered composites.
Outcomes
- You will master the skills required to create layered composite veneers.
- You will perfect the steps required to create the perfect smile design, make stents, build mock-ups.
Theory, Hands-on and Online Learning
- Pre-theory Hands-on - Restore four anterior teeth on model with palatal shell and layered composite
- Treatment Planning - The process of treatment planning anterior direct veneers, including how to make stents and use mockup and diagnostic mockups will be covered in this unit
- A composite “waxup” of six anterior teeth - carried out and carefully documented, including the fabrication of stents and then using it a create a mockup. This exercise will be demonstrated before hand and step by step instructions given for the you to copy. This mockup will form the basis of the layered veneers carried out in the next exercise.
- Layered composite veneers - This presentation will cover step by step details of carrying out layered composite veneers. This will also involve how to use different dentine, body and enamel masses to create perfectly lifelike restorations without risk of grey or overly translucent effects.
- Live patient demonstration video/live stream of placing composite veneers.
- Layered composite intensive - This hands on module will go through the creating layered composites using the mockup you have done earlier. We will step through the creation of a palatal shell, and the placement of layers to get lifelike results. The six anteriors plus the premolars will be included. - layered composite veneers with palatal shell six anteriors, plus premolars.
- Final assessment will be through the documentation of the treatment planning, and communication and clinical step by steps of a composite veneers case done in your office. This will include one monoshade case and one layered case.
Ceramic Veneers
Synopsis
Synonymous to achieving perfect ceramic veneers is mastering the communication with the lab who is building them. Master the skills required to take high quality impressions so that the lab can create high quality veneers. Explore the art of smile design, patient communication, and consent.
Shade matching photography continues in this section, as getting the colour right is as essential as the veneers themselves.
Outcomes
- You will explore in detail the ceramic choices for veneers and prep design.
- You will master tissue control and techniques for making the perfect scans and impressions.
- You will master the skills required for temporisation, insertion and the bonding of veneers.
- You will master treatment planning, occlusion, smile design, mockups, consent, and how to make sure you have excellent lab support.
Theory, Hands-on and Online Learning
- Pre-theory Exercise - prep and temporise the six anteriors teeth for veneers
- Veneer and aesthetic rehabilitation - Treatment planning, occlusion, smile design, mockups, consent, lab support. Although veneers are largely aesthetically driven, a lot of functional considerations need to go into the planning and occlusion for the case not to end in disaster. This learning unit will cover these areas including smile design, mockup design and creation, consent procedures and communication with the laboratory.
- Ceramic Veneer Treatment Planning - Case presentation. You will be mentored through the treatment planning, decision making, material selection, lab planning, informed consent process and financial consent for two live patient veneers cases in your office. Interactive discussion and feedback amongst the overall class and your cohort will help you see multiple approaches and viewpoints as well as show you multiple cases worked up.
- Veneer Hands-on - Mockup, veneer preps and temporary construction under personal supervision and mentoring.
- Ceramic choices for veneers and prep design, tissue control, impressions/scanning and temporisation. All the key elements of carrying out ceramic veneers will be covered in this unit.
- Case Presentation of the mockup, preparation, impression, temporisation of one of your own cases You will be mentored through any of the steps if you have concerns or worries.
- Lecture and live patient live demonstration - Insertion and bonding of veneers, may be recorded if necessary
- Case presentation of two ceramic veneers cases that you have completed in your office, done to an excellent standard is required before final graduation from this module

Consumables for the Veneers and Aesthetics Module
In most parts of the world, you can access these from your normal channels at lower cost than we can, even with sponsorship. To focus on our vision of making education more available and accessible, it is more efficient for you to acquire your own consumables.
We also want to avoid teaching you on a material that you will never use. We are happy for you to substitute your own brand if you prefer, as it is about technique more than materials.
Register your interest for individual courses
We have created the Fellowship as a logical learning sequence, and sold as a four module continuum.
If there is any space in any of the modules, we can sell individual places. However those doing the full course will be offered priority.
Please register your interest below and we will keep you updated if an individual module becomes available.
