Presentation title

“A Consideration on Managing Soft Tissue for Achieving Ideal Free Gingival Margin” 

Summary

Keywords: fluorescence, contour

It is widely known that Mr. Willi Geller has focused on the florescence of natural teeth for more than thirty years, and he developed Creation porcelain system that has the fluorescence resembling to that of natural dentition. 

 

 Through participating Mr. Geller’s hands-on courses, one can recognize that his layering technique is emphasized on “how to deliver the light to the tissue for bright and healthy appearance.” Moreover, one can sense that he does not only fabricate restorations that look real, but also he strives to improve the appearance of tissue with his restorations.  In other words, it is not too much to say that “fabricating restorations with Creation porcelain means considering even to the appearance of tissue.”

 

In this lecture, based on the philosophy described above, I will present the clinical cases where soft tissue was managed by the crown contour, intended to achieve free gingival margin that looks natural.

Presentation title

“A Proposal in Determining Morphology in Restoring Anterior Teeth”   

Summary

 

Keywords: Harmony with surrounding oral environment

When restoring anterior teeth, whether the restoration is for a single tooth or multiple teeth, it is crucial to harmonize with surrounding environment such as residual teeth, tissue, lips, and face.  Technicians are required to have the knowledge and skill to fabricate the restorations that harmonize with not only adjacent teeth but also surrounding environment.  I recognize that many patients are desiring so.

 

In this lecture, I will address the view points on achieving such harmony, and the method of analyzing surrounding environment.

Presentation title

“Harmony between Restorations and Surrounding Gingiva: Form and Selection of Porcelain Powders”

 

Summary

 

Keywords: Harmony between restorations and surrounding gingiva, Emergence profile and surface smoothness 

The harmony between restorations and surrounding gingiva is one of the requirements that need to be taken into consideration when restoring anterior teeth.  In order to achieve such harmony, it is crucial to create a proper emergence profile in conjunction with controlling surface smoothness, where the restorations interface the surrounding gingiva.

 

In this lecture, I will illustrate and discuss the sequence of fabricating restorations focusing on the emergence profile, selection of porcelain powder for surface smoothness.

Presentation title

“Framework Design for Proper Midline 

and Incisal Position and Porcelain Application”

 

Summary

Keywords: Designing midline and incisal edge position, Criteria for framework selection

In the fabrication of restorations, it is crucial to design a midline and incisal edge position that harmonizes with the face in provisional restoration, and to reproduce them in the final restorations.  Especially, we pay great attention to establish the mesial incisal corners of the central incisors, which is most crucial as it serves as a guideline for the function and aesthetic.

 

This lecture addresses the criteria for framework selection to design the midline and incisal edge position in the final restorations, and the points in shade matching in various types of frameworks.
