Chasing the Halo: Aesthetic Layering Secrets for Anterior Composites
Discover how to recreate nature’s play of light through precise composite layering. This webinar explores the principles behind the halo effect, tooth anatomy, and translucency — guiding you through step-by-step techniques to achieve lifelike anterior restorations.
Every natural smile reveals a delicate halo of light — and this webinar will show you how to bring it back. Join to learn the anatomy and layering techniques behind the halo effect, blending art and science to elevate your anterior composite restorations.
Reproducing natural light effects is one of the greatest challenges in aesthetic dentistry. Among these, the halo effect — the subtle rim of light visible along the incisal edge of anterior teeth — plays a key role in creating lifelike and dynamic restorations.
In this webinar, we will explore the optical and anatomical principles behind this phenomenon and share a clear, step-by-step approach to layering composites that reproduce it naturally. Participants will gain insights into the relationship between light, tooth anatomy, and material selection, and learn how to manage translucency, opalescence, and internal effects to achieve harmonious and realistic results.
Through clinical examples and practical tips, this session will guide you in understanding and mastering the halo effect — turning a routine restoration into a piece of natural artistry.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the optical behavior of enamel and dentin in relation to the halo effect.
Analyze incisal edge anatomy and its influence on light reflection and translucency.
Learn practical layering techniques for anterior composite restorations.
Discover how to combine materials to reproduce natural light effects.
