DISCOVER

Discover composite placement, sculpting, contouring, and polishing procedures to ensure proper contours, excellent contact, and an esthetically pleasing appearance of class II composite restorations.

REVIEW

Review a simple and repeatable technique to mitigate sensitivity issues and achieve ideal proximal contacts, resulting in maximum strength and predictable outcomes of the restoration to create life-like form.

PRACTICE

Learn bulk-fill and layering techniques that provide excellent contours and proximal contacts. Identify the clinical factors that contribute to the success of class II composite restorations.

Learn the skills to confidently place posterior composites. Utilizing both traditional and bulk-fill composites, participants will practice techniques to place virtually invisible restorations confidently and predictably. Review placement and polishing techniques to create properly shaped restorations that offset tooth stresses related to polymerization shrinkage and configuration factor of the restoration.

During this virtual workshop, Dr. Dennis Hartlieb will walk participants step-by-step through composite placement, sculpting, contouring, and polishing procedures. By following this technique, participants can create predictable and reliable class II composite restorations that meet their patients' needs.

Dr. Jeremy Peyser

One of the things that I like about DOT is that it's a safe environment to ask questions, to show work, you know and to get constructive criticism that enables each person's go to the next level. So that's a great thing about it is that we show our work, and that we can learn from each person's challenges.

Dr. Mohit Joshi

[Dr. Dennis Hartlieb] taught me when I was in dental school, so when he came out with DOT I had to jump on. It's just an invaluable online piece that I think everyone should take advantage of. I love it because you can essentially work at your own pace. It's easy access, the content is relevant, it's super informative, and you can take it directly from wherever you are listening to it, to your practice the next day.

Dr. Michelle Farnoush

DOT is a online cosmetic dental training platform. It's revolutionizing how we learn cosmetic dental techniques. What makes DOT different is that not only do you get hands-on kits and you can learn at your own pace, but you can also join virtual small group sessions and webinars and get one-on-one mentorship from Dr. Hartlieb himself... Learning things online is the new way that education is going and DOT is revolutionizing how we do that in dentistry.

Dr. Sofya Kats

I love this course platform for for three reasons: 1. Easy to understand and follow 2. Super inexpensive compared to in person hands-on courses. 3. Great feedback from the instructor! Highly recommend... Amazing value for the investment on your own time!!

Dr. Emily Varsanik

I purchased a membership in November. This is the first course that I have completed, and it was wonderful! With a young daughter at home, the flexibility to study on my time is priceless, and the quality of this course was so much better than anything I anticipated. I can't wait to continue with my learning!"

Dr. Satbir Singh Saini

This platform has really helped me improve my dentistry. I feel like I'm way ahead than my other batchmates in practicing a better dentistry because of this course. I really glad I joined this course and this is a very economical course for students. This course has boosted my career many years ahead.
