MPT: Moulding Press Technique

Instructor: Sjoerd Smeekens Experience the power of the Molding Press Technique: work faster, with greater predictability, and achieve more aesthetically pleasing results! Are you also tired of the fact that casting a composite mold takes forever, is incredibly complex, and often doesn’t yield a beautiful end result? Meet the solution: the Moulding Press Technique. This innovative molding technique not only simplifies the process but also makes it significantly more efficient and predictable—with a photo-worthy result! During this two-day course, you’ll learn how to effortlessly transform a try-in into a high-quality composite restoration using the Moulding Press Technique. Day 1: We’ll start with an inspiring lecture on aesthetic analysis, direct mock-ups, design principles, and effective communication with the dental laboratory. Then you’ll get to work yourself in a hands-on workshop: you’ll create a mock-up and determine the centric relation (CR). Day 2: The focus is on digitizing the cast, fabricating keys, material selection, and preparation. In the following workshop, you’ll learn how to create keys, position them correctly, press them, and finish them using the Molding Press Technique. We’ll conclude both days with a reflection and evaluation session so you can apply what you’ve learned effectively in your own practice. Discover how the Moulding Press Technique can radically improve your workflow—faster, more predictable, and with stunningly beautiful results! After completing this course, you will be able to: Systematically assess and analyze risks within a patient’s dentition. Identify and apply the correct intraoral and extraoral reference points in your treatment planning. Effectively evaluate and analyze digital impressions and the corresponding digital models. Independently and accurately create a mold based on digital data. Predictably transfer and finish a digital impression in the mouth, while maintaining correct occlusal relationships.
