What you will learn​

Through a structured, highly practical programme, participants will master the injection moulding technique—a repeatable, predictable workflow tailored for composite restorations.

Beyond Gingivectomy -Biology Behind Stability

Understand why simply cutting soft tissue fails long-term and learn how to preserve the supracrestal tissue attachment for predictable, inflammation-free results.

From Aesthetic Design to Functional Restoration

Gain full control over anterior smile harmony and posterior restorability — integrating digital planning, bone recontouring, and restorative strategies into your daily workflow.

Hands-On Surgical Experience

Translate theory into skill through practical sessions on models and simulations, covering flap design, osseous recontouring, and suturing so you leave ready to apply it in real cases.

About the course

A Crown Lengthening Masterclass

Who is the course intended for?

Tailored for general dentists and specialists aiming to enhance expertise in crown lengthening. Ideal for those committed to elevating restorative dentistry and delivering predictable, high-quality outcomes for patients.

Anatomical Precision Mastery

Gain in-depth insights into periodontal and surgical anatomy, essential for precise diagnosis and effective crown lengthening procedures.

Patient-Centric Proficiency

Learn to identify indications and contraindications, ensuring proper patient selection for successful crown lengthening outcomes and satisfaction.

Structural Preservation Expertise

Master the concepts of biological width and ferrule for optimal restorative dentistry, preserving tooth structure and ensuring long-term success.

Surgical Mastery Toolkit

Acquire comprehensive skills in osseous surgery, instrumentation, suturing techniques, and flap reflection for precise and efficient crown lengthening procedures.

Step 1: Simulation

The initial section of the course is dedicated to the art of simulation. Here, we will guide you through the process of creating a preview for your patient . This step is pivotal as it enables you to secure patient approval by showcasing the expected result through the wax up and by placing the mockup in the patient's mouth.

Step 2: Copy

The heart of the course lies in the "Copy" section. This phase delves into the intricate details of copying the diagnostic wax up in the injection moulding template. This process is executed using clear silicon, ensuring precision and attention to every nuance. The level of detail and thoroughness during this step is a hallmark of our course and sets the foundation for achieving exceptional results.

Step 3: Paste

The final section, "Paste," involves the execution phase within the patient's mouth. This step encompasses the duplication of the wax up, realised through the injection moulding technique you've learned. By seamlessly integrating the pasted version into the patient's oral cavity, you showcase the culmination of the simulation and copying phases. This execution is a testament to the perfected injection moulding technique and its potential to transform your practice.
