The next TEAM talk from EADT eV will once again focus on the diverse topic of “Micro-Layering”. In our last meeting it became clear that one hour is not enough to grasp this complex topic. Many questions remain unanswered, so we will now once again focus on micro-layering.
Once again, we will focus on three key questions, which we will examine from the diverse perspectives of the EADT eV – from dentistry and dental technology to materials science and the dental industry. Our discussion will be rich in expertise and multifaceted perspectives. We will address aspects that we only briefly touched upon in the last TEAM Talk . Together with you, we want to continue what we started and try to discuss the many open questions. Among other things, we will discuss the role of zirconia as a framework material and color-bearing base, highlight the importance of nesting in restorations, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of techniques such as coating, layering, and the no-bake technique. We will also consider the limitations and boundaries of these techniques.
TEAM Talk #2: Micro-Layering (Part 2)
Wednesday, December 13, 2023 (18:00 PM – 19:00 PM) via ZOOM

Monolithic anterior and posterior tooth restorations are popular as an all-ceramic restoration concept. Micro-layering is becoming increasingly popular as a form of prosthetic care. But what should you consider from the perspective of the dental practice and what should you consider from the perspective of the dental laboratory? The EADT focuses on three central questions surrounding the topic:
Central questions of the TEAM talk #5
1. How do I achieve my predictable color result (VITA color scale) with micro-layering?
- Which procedural steps are crucial?
- What role does “nesting” play?
2. Coating versus “layering” in the anterior and posterior areas
- Which application for which prosthetic case?
3. What are the limits?
These key questions provide an excellent basis for an in-depth and multifaceted discussion. We look forward to exploring these aspects together with the participants and sharing our knowledge and experiences.
Registration
The number of participants is limited to enable an optimal exchange of knowledge. EADT members can participate free of charge. Any places still available will be released to interested parties (non-members) one week before the TEAM Talk (participation is free).
To register for TEAM-Talk #5 “Micro-Layering”, please use the form below or send an email to event@b929ibw.eadt.de.
The special feature of the TEAM talk (online) is the high practical relevance and the format of a talk session. Targeted questions are discussed from the different perspectives of EADT eV (dentistry, dental technology, science and dental technology). Participants receive reliable, well-founded information for everyday work and can ask questions.
