On 15-16 November, DTIM will offer Round Table Trainings to the participants, taking place at the Madinat Jumeirah Arena & Conference Centre, Dubai, UAE. The sessions will be hosted by numerous international speakers covering various topics. Each session will be repeated four times per day, and you can select and attend training sessions at your preferred time slots. You can attend a maximum of four sessions per day.
Regardless of whether you specialize in crown and bridge, orthodontics, implantology, or prosthetics, you will enjoy and learn a lot during these sessions. You will have the chance to attend numerous training sessions split into smaller groups (with 10 seats available, and an additional standing room), meaning you will have the opportunity to ask your questions immediately and receive personal treatment from the presenters. The practical demonstrations will, at the same time, provide inspiration and offer troubleshooting solutions.

Abstract
Since the application of zirconia in the dental field, the full ceramic restoration application has become more and more popular, and the material has become more and more mature. It is no longer necessary to spend a lot of time on cut-back design to apply porcelain, which saves precious time and labor costs for dental technicians. With the uniqueness of the new 3D glaze paste is that porcelain powder particles are added to the glaze paste. No matter it is applied on zirconia, lithium disilicate, or glass-ceramic restorations, it can achieve very beautiful and natural results.
What we will cover:
● The concept of Liquid-Ceramic stains.
● Operation skill of monolithic restoration with staining technique.
● The application of different types of materials
Learning Objectives
At the end of the lecture participants should be able to:
● Become familiar with the operation methods and differences between 3d paste and 2dpaste.
● Understand the application of different colors with different types of material to achieve aesthetic results.
● Understanding the way to analyze the color distribution of different types of restoration and the ways to achieve different effects.
Abstract
Optimal use of multilayer zirconium dioxide and lithium disilicate. Full build -up, minimal layering and staining as alternative methods with no esthetic compromise.
● Full ceramic build-up on lithium disilicate coping. Creation of transmitting and reflecting zones, different levels of translucency, opalescence and fluorescence. Staining as a final touch, enhancing or diminishing effects.
● Vestibular veneering of zirconium structure. Internal staining as an enhancement of color, saturation and translucency. Minimal ceramic layering creating opalescence layer with different levels of color saturation.
● Full power of staining in terms of monolithic zirconium structures. Creating a base layer of color, contrast staining and 3D effects. Use of True Color liquid. Effective glazing at low temperatures.
Simple but effective journey in the world of natural esthetic. Alternative ways of achieving comparable results. Full build up guided by natural design of dentine core, consecutive vestibular ceramic layering respecting tooth morphology, efficient staining of monolithic structures involving ceramic stains of high intensity, both 2D and 3D, fired at low temperatures. Unified, fluorescent glazing for all kinds of restorations, performed in a wide range of temperatures (730 - 850 degrees Celsius), depending on the material used.
Demonstration of full ceramic build up, presentation of natural staining, discussion about achieved results, explanation of the vestibular veneering concept, bringing closer the term “natural esthetic”.
Abstract
Effective communication between dentists and dental technicians is crucial for successful patient outcomes. Traditional communication methods, like impressions and models, are evolving with digital advancements, such as intraoral scanners and face scanners, which offer precision and efficiency. Evaluating intraoral scans ensures high-quality results, and choosing the right 3D printer is essential for creating accurate restorations. The latest updates in digital dentistry focus on improving these tools, streamlining workflows, and enhancing collaboration between professionals, leading to better, faster, and more reliable dental care solutions.
Learning Objectives
● Dentist-technician communication: we can all do better.
● Methods of communication between dentist and technician (traditional vs digital).
● How to evaluate the intraoral scans?
● Why do we use face scanners?
● Know how to choose your 3D printer.
● The last update in digital dentistry.
