Pure Control, a 3-Step Evaluation Process for High-End Ceramic Restorations

The webinar will analyze three critical factors that influence the final outcome of a ceramic restoration: Value, Chroma, and Shape. Understanding and controlling these parameters through the use of ceramic powders and internal staining enables ceramists to achieve predictable, high-end aesthetic restorations.

This lecture introduces a 3-Step Evaluation Protocol designed to achieve highly aesthetic ceramic restorations. Participants will learn how to systematically control Value, Chroma, and Shape through the use of internal staining, micro-layering with CERABIEN™ MiLai, or full layering with CERABIEN™ ZR or Super Porcelain EX-3™, followed by final characterization. Clinical cases will be presented to illustrate step-by-step workflows and practical decision-making in daily dental lab practice.

Learning Objectives

• Understand the 3-Step Evaluation Concept: Value, Chroma, and Shape
• Learn how to apply internal stains to control chroma and create optical illusions
• Improve predictability in mixed-material prosthetic restorations
• Master opacity and translucency management for natural aesthetic outcomes
