A Hands-On Workshop in Composite Injection Moulding Utilizing Digital Workflows with Dr. Rahul Kallianpur (In-Person)
About This Event
Composite injection moulding has revolutionized minimally invasive esthetic dentistry by offering a conservative, cost-effective, and highly predictable approach to smile enhancement. The Moulding Method integrates this technique with digital smile design to provide a streamlined workflow from virtual planning to final composite restorations. This immersive hands-on course covers digital design software, lab communication, stent fabrication, and step-by-step execution of composite injection technique. The program emphasizes predictability, repeatability, reduced chair time, improved patient satisfaction and case acceptance. Participants will practice real-world cases, learn selection of cases and shades, perform injection with high-viscosity composites, and refine finishing and polishing protocols. Additional info: printed CE certificate provided; refund available up to two weeks prior to event.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the principles and workflow of digital smile design (DSD) and how to apply them to composite cases
- Implement smile previews to enhance patient communication and case acceptance
- Navigate the lab collaboration process using Evident, from digital designs to 3D-printed models and stents
- Fabricate precise injection moulding stents in-house or with a lab, ensuring fit and function
- Select appropriate cases and shades, focusing on diagnostics, tooth morphology, and esthetic zones
- Perform the composite injection technique using high-viscosity composites with controlled layering
- Refine finishing and polishing protocols for long-term esthetic stability and natural results
- Troubleshoot common clinical challenges and learn tips for maintenance and repair
