The Bio-Emulation philosophy as described in Structural Analysis and Visual Synthesis is a universal methodology to emulate natural tissues with a state of the art biomimetic approach.
The analysis of dentin and enamel structures and the evolution of their physical and optical properties over time is at the core of this philosophy. Selection of restorative materials is based on a combination of photographic techniques and color measurements together with proper clinical evaluation. From direct restorations with the penta_laminar concept to indirect restorations with micro_layered solutions, it is feasible to achieve ultra-realistic restorations with similar optical behaviour as natural teeth.
Key Learning points

- Learn advanced photographic techniques for material selection.
- Material selection criteria based on patients age.
- Direct anterior restoration with simplified penta_laminar approach.
- Indirect anterior restoration with micro_layering over opalescent lithium disilicate.
