Introduction to the Program

Improve your knowledge through this program, where you will find the best didactic material with real clinical cases. Learn here about the latest advances in the speciality to be able to perform quality dental practice"

Society is undergoing constant change. Classical dentistry based on pain mitigation is gradually disappearing in favor of advances in prevention and maintenance guidelines.

Today's society, increasingly interested in appearance, requires dentists to be trained in minimally invasive techniques that allow patients to obtain the desired appearance in their smiles, which also allows them to develop socially and professionally.

These treatments require a multidisciplinary approach and require knowledge of the limits of each of the specialties. The correct execution of the procedure and the contribution of each of the branches of our profession will enable us to achieve exceptional results, where the final result reproduces, in all senses, the lost nature.

This is why the specialty of esthetic dentistry appears, halfway between the prosthodontist, the surgeon and the orthodontist, since none of these specialties by itself can be separated from the other in search of the final excellence of the treatment.

The subjectivity of aesthetics makes it necessary more than in any other specialty to establish a dialogue with the patient through a series of analog and/or digital tests where we as specialists can understand the real needs or not of our patients and get them involved in their final treatment.

As dentists we are expected to provide detail and quality in the final treatment, nowadays there are no excuses because we already have the material and technical means to obtain excellent results. For this reason, the program emphasizes new materials and techniques that can be used in the final execution of the treatment.
