Establishing a close working relationship between Technician and Surgeon is at the heart of successful Smile Design. Over the years we have learnt, along with our clients, to use the protocols that will give us predictable and aesthetically pleasing results every time.
Using the principals taught by the British and American Academies of Cosmetic Dentistry, our use of the diagnostic wax up is key to this process, as patient communicator, for preparation guidance and for provisionalization.
