Everything Veneers – PDP021

Last week it was International Women’s Day, which makes me especially proud to share this absolute clinical blockbuster with one of the most inspirational Women in Dentistry – Dr Manrina Rhode. In this very clinical episode of PDP, she teaches us about Veneers – she has been placing them for several years and has developed awesome systems in her practice for this. Full Video version on YouTube or IGTV @jazzygulati https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_AZh3spMUU The Protrusive Dental Pearl in this Episode is a Communication one! Let me know what you think. We discuss: Manrina’s journey with cosmetic Dentistry and veneers – how did she get the exposure early on in her career? Ceramic vs composite veneers – composite has lifted off last few years, what has been your experience? What percentage of her patients have pre-restorative orthodontics? Which burs does she use for her preps? (Bur codes listed on Protrusive Dental Community: www.facebook.com/groups/protrusive/ ) What prep protocols does she use? What kind of stents? How do you communicate shade with lab and the patient? Does Manrina follow an ‘Occlusal Philosophy’ to ensure (para)functional longevity of her veneers? How do you manage patients with ultra-high expectations? How she uses Photoshop to show patient possibilities with their own smile Why awesome temporary/provisional veneers are so important How does she fabricate good looking, long lasting provisional veneers? What is her bonding protocol? How does she reduce mistakes during a stressful bonding appointment? Hint: teamwork! She gives a very good veneer bonding hack towards the end!
