The Complex Aesthetic Case: When & How to Open the Vertical

Failures in dentistry are frequently blamed on materials, but in reality, many times we, the dentist are the culprit.

By applying a few basic principles, we can design the proper amount of restorative space for our restorations. This innovative, fast pace course will explore aesthetics that are BUILT TO LAST.
