On the basis of clinical photography and video recording, a preliminary plan will be developed. DSD (Digital Smile Design) is a tool that enables us to assess visually in advance the results of a treatment. This facilitates our consultations with the patient and responding directly and accurately to his/​her expectations. With the aid of DSD, the dental technician develops a mock-up, which is used to copy to the mouth and to evaluate the tray-out in the photo studio. This enables the patient to see exactly the outcomes of the proposed treatment. At the same time, the mock-up provides you with the information for the preparation of the laminate veneers. With a minimal invasive technique, the teeth are prepared. To protect the dentinal tubules, we apply IDS (Immediate Dental Sealing). An imprint will be made and requirements for impression materials will be explained. The correct information is collected to be send to the dental technician to prepare the facings. In the meantime, a temporary restoration is developed and finalized. The different steps will be explained theoretically, followed by a live treatment which will be streamlined directly through video. 

The removal of the temporary restoration is not easy. How do we proceed? Subsequently, it is essential that the preparation in the mouth is properly cleaned before placing the laminate veneers. The pros and cons of diverse color tray-out cements, which type of cement do we prefer and why? After the fitting, the veneers have to be finalized. In addition, the preparation in the mouth must be properly isolated and correctly prepared. Cementation requires a specific protocol which must be strictly followed in order to achieve a sustainable and predictable result. All components will be explained theoretically as well as clinically, followed by a final discussion and Q&A.
