Technique Overview

Restorations are Waxed to Full Contour

Restorations are Pressed

Incisal Edge Position is Recorded

provides a guide during cutback procedures

The incisal can be reduced to a maximum of 1mm clearance*

*The pressed structure must maintain a minimum thickness of (0.5mm)

Wash Pastes are added for internal characterization

Veneer Material is then layered according to shade requirements

Once fired, the final restorations are contoured

and Given Natural Texture

Final Shade Evaluation is completed using the Tooth Shaded Die

Additional Characterization or Color Correction is Completed as Needed
