Vertipreps, BOPT, and fibrous abutments: the biomimetic prosthetic combination

Description Additional Information The Biomimetic Prosthetic Combo: Understand the principles of vertical preparations (Vertiprep, V-Prep, BOPT) and their clinical benefits, and master the construction of fiber-reinforced abutments using a biomimetic approach. Understand the principles of vertical preparations (Vertiprep, V-Prep, BOPT) and their clinical benefits Identify the biological and mechanical requirements of these minimally invasive preparations Incorporate the use of zirconia to optimize the strength and aesthetics of restorations Know how to leverage the ferrule effect to reinforce modern crown-radicular reconstructions Master gingival conditioning and contouring associated with these techniques Theory and practice on the same day—live video demonstration of the construction of a fiber-reinforced, cemented corono-radicular abutment, followed by participants’ complete reproduction of the procedure on models. Doctor of Dental Surgery, Nancy (France) Biomimetic Prosthodontics & Vertical Preparations Postgraduate Certificate in Orofacial and Osteoarticular Biology, Prosthodontics, and Adhesive Biomaterials Lecturer at the University of Nancy (1993–2005) In private practice in Vevey-Montreux (Switzerland) since 2006 How to bond with the greatest precision? Which material to use? Why fibers? Which fibers? Construction of the artificial stump: clinical options Should one bond or not? How to balance strength and aesthetics How to design the prosthetic margin and the framework? Demonstration and video using fibers and composite on tooth 21 Participants practice the complete procedure on models Member: €1,400 Non-member: €1,500 February 12–13, 2027 9:00 AM – 5:30 PM (function(){ var root = document.getElementById('dz-course-2027'); if(!root) return; var reduced = window.matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)').matches; // Scroll reveal var targets = root.querySelectorAll('.dz-reveal'); if('IntersectionObserver' in window && !reduced){ var io = new IntersectionObserver(function(entries){ entries.forEach(function(e){ if(e.isIntersecting){ e.target.classList.add('is-visible'); io.unobserve(e.target); } }); }, {threshold:0.15}); targets.forEach(function(t){ io.observe(t); }); } else { targets.forEach(function(t){ t.classList.add('is-visible'); }); } // Light parallax on hero var heroImg = root.querySelector('.dz-hero-img'); var hero = root.querySelector('.dz-hero'); if (heroImg && hero && !reduced) { var updateParallax = function() { var r = hero.getBoundingClientRect(); if (r.bottom > 0 && r.top < window.innerHeight) { var offset = Math.max(-70, Math.min(70, r.top * 0.15)); // more pronounced movement, allowed by the vertical buffer of the 2000x2000 square covers heroImg.style.transform = 'translateY(' + offset + 'px)'; } }; updateParallax(); // Correct position upon loading, without waiting for a scroll event window.addEventListener('scroll', updateParallax, {passive:true}); } // Accordion window.dzToggleProg = function(headEl){ var item = headEl.closest('.dz-prog-item'); var body = item.querySelector('.dz-prog-body'); var isOpen = item.classList.contains('is-open'); // close siblings root.querySelectorAll('.dz-prog-item.is-open').forEach(function(el){ if(el !== item){ el.classList.remove('is-open'); el.querySelector('.dz-prog-body').style.maxHeight = null; } }); if(isOpen){ item.classList.remove('is-open'); body.style.maxHeight = null; } else { item.classList.add('is-open'); body.style.maxHeight = body.scrollHeight + 'px'; } }; // initialize open state root.querySelectorAll('.dz-prog-item.is-open .dz-prog-body').forEach(function(b){ b.style.maxHeight = b.scrollHeight + 'px'; }); })(); 7 Dr. Gerdolle David Brussels
