Description

Course description: The marriage between the dental office, the planning, the placement.......every step to the finished prosthetics with material choice being as important as placement. We as dental technician's/ laboratory owners should hold our heads high and raise our standards to keep our profession in the forefront when it comes to restoring dental health for those who care about success. Day 1 Lecture: Daniel Alter, developer of the "Thimble Technique". The Thimble Technique allows for a 3D outcome that creates a more realistic restoration. He will take you through understanding the philosophy of material choice and why using an absorbing material (Which is strong, lightweight, predictable, esthetically driven and, most importantly, will not damage the implant sites) is both successful and satisfying. This course is a great way to show your doctors the Trilor Thimble Technique by inviting them to attend this lecture. No prerequisite required.
