11:45-12:30pm
Achieving Shade with Minimal Thickness Ceramic Restorations | Lecture
Javier Vasquez, DMD, MDT
Learn how to control the minimal thickness in all ceramic restorations. Depending on the properties of the material the minimal thickness of manufacturing has limitations. Form and texture to create the most beautiful, minimal invasive smile enhancements will be discussed. Tips, tricks, and pearls on how to achieve these contact lenses will be discussed.

1:00-1:45pm
Adding the Final Color Touch to Your Restorations | Hands-On Workshop
Javier Vasquez, DMD, MDT
Ready to seat your restoration but it still needs a little boost of chroma or slight color change? Different material thickness can mean different chroma control but requires some characterization with stain colors and glaze. Participate and learn to use AKZENT LC (light-cured) for hybrid and PMMA CAD materials and/or use AKZENT PLUS (fired glass colors), based in the concept of “pointillism” to preserve the translucency of the materials without saturating the surfaces to become more effective digital providers.

2:15-3:00pm
The Power of Chair-Side Digital Dentistry | Lecture
Daniel Vasquez, DDS
Join this exciting event to learn treatment planning, material selection, characterizing with colors, and creation of a perfect smile using your digital technology. This powerful lecture will provide you with treatment plan options and clinical workflows of various clinical situations to resolve real life challenges and complications in providing for patient satisfaction.

3:15-4:00pm
The Power of Chair-side Characterization | Hands-On Workshop
Daniel Vasquez, DDS
Join this exciting event to learn how to apply AKZENT LC (light-cured), a stain & glaze system for your hybrid or PMMA CAD restorations. The concepts can also be applied using a glass fired stain/glaze material such as AKZENT PLUS to your zirconia or othe glass matrix restorations. Learn how to manipulate translucency, chroma, and create incisal effect. For better patient acceptance.

4:30-5:00pm
Shade Happens! Selecting the Right Material for Chair-side Digital Dentistry | Lecture
Julian Conejo, DDS, M. Sc
Are the majority of patients really A2 or are we compromising esthetics with a one-color-fits-all approach to shade? Learn to go beyond a basic A2 shaded block and learn about selection of the right material to fit the clinical treatment planning needs. Manipulate your material choice for effective shade selection and natural tooth value matching, to provide your patient with the best possible smile.

5:30-6:15pm
The Power of Chair-side Digital Dentistry | Hands-On Workshop
Julian Conejo, DDS, M. Sc
Selection of the right material and shade ca match the patient’s natural dentition 80% of the time. The remaining 20% of a perfect smile may be with characterizing with color stains and glazes (AKZENT LC (light-cured) or AKZENT PLUS ceramic stains). Participate in a quick “how to” create color effects of your restoration for your Hybrid/PMMA, zirconia, or glass based restorations. Tips and tricks of effect manipulation of external colors will give you confidence Monday morning in achieving more esthetic results for your patient.

6:45-7:30pm
Digital Chair-Side Implant Restorations: Material Selection for Clinical Success | Lecture
Julian Conejo, DDS, M. Sc
Through the use of Digital Dentistry, more clinics are accepting single dental implants as a value-added service to their patients. Your journey to total digital dentistry may lead you to expanding your services in placing and restoring dental implants. A review of single-tooth dental implant success by using more modern restorative materials such as ENAMIC IS (implant solutions) and YZ Zirconia blocks for long-term success and esthetic considerations will be addressed.

Rescue Your Restorations with Akzent Plus Chroma | Lecture
Palmer Blair
When trying-in your CAD/CAM milled restoration onto the prep is the shade, value, or chroma incorrect? Does the restoration require just a hint of color? There’s no need to re-mill, you can make a time and material saving adjustment using Akzent Plus Chroma stains from VITA. This program will cover the essential characterizing process to help you “decipher” effect glass stain colors to adjust your milled restoration to fit the patient’s needs and smile.

2:15-3:00pm
Rescue Your Restorations with Akzent Plus Chroma | Hands-On Workshop
Palmer Blair
The application of adding color to your milled restoration sounds so easy on paper, so let’s have you apply what you have learned on how to characterize and glaze CAD/CAM restorations into practice. Participants in this booth hands-on clinic will learn about the Akzent Plus system, universally applicable to all glass ceramic restorations, and adjust the chroma and final shade of a previously milled restoration. It’s as easy as “A”, “B”, “C”!
