Restorative & Esthetic Dentistry
Bio-Esthetic Adhesive Dentistry
Refine anterior composite bonding and conservative treatment of tooth wear—from diagnosis and layering to finishing.
With Dr. Didier Dietschi
Course information
Preserve tooth structure. Refine the restoration.
Explore adhesive treatment through two complementary themes: direct restorations in the smile zone and the management of erosion and attrition. Dr. Didier Dietschi connects material choices with the amount of tooth structure that can be preserved.
The first four lectures cover bonding indications, natural layering, diagnostic tools and finishing. The remaining lectures examine tooth-wear assessment, freehand bonding and molding or hybrid approaches.
The DentalEDX collection includes seven recorded lectures totaling 5 hours and 30 minutes, together with a course brochure. Review the lessons in order or return to a particular restorative decision.

Who this course is for
For dentists focused on conservative restorative care.
Connect esthetic objectives with adhesive techniques and an understanding of tooth wear.
Esthetic dentistry practitioners
Develop your understanding of composite layering, surface finishing and anterior integration.
Clinicians treating worn dentitions
Compare freehand, molding and hybrid approaches within a diagnosis-led treatment plan.
Bio-esthetic thinking
Let biology guide the esthetic plan.
A restoration is more than a shade match: treatment choice also depends on the remaining tooth structure.
The course brings anterior bonding and tooth-wear care into the same discussion. It explores how assessment, material handling and a staged treatment strategy can be considered together.
