CERAMIC.PRO VENEERS—Mastering the Trilaminar Approach
2-Day Hands-On Course | 16 CE Credits
 
November 1–2, 2025 | Miami, Florida
 
Course Overview
This intensive two-day hands-on course is designed for ceramists aiming to deepen their understanding of the optical behavior of ceramics and simplify their daily workflow. Participants will work on veneers, applying a structured, anatomical layering methodology known as the Trilaminar Approach—a reliable system that mirrors natural tooth construction using dentin, enamel, and incisal effects.
 
The CERAMIC.PRO program equips ceramists with a replicable and intuitive system to produce natural-looking, high-performance restorations with minimal complexity.
 
Why Take This Course?
Participants will gain the ability to:
Understand and apply various ceramic layering techniques
Interpret the optical behavior of anterior teeth
Select and correlate appropriate ceramic systems and materials
Control opacity and translucency for lifelike aesthetics
Reproduce optical characteristics such as halo effects, incisal nuances, and mamelons
Apply biomimetic principles in every restoration
Master 3D volume control in ceramic layering
Execute predictable, natural-looking restorations with confidence
