The course “Fixed Prosthodontics in the Esthetic Zone: preparation design and execution for predictable outcomes,” organized by Komet Academy, will take place on October 31, 2026 in Senigallia, Italy, featuring Dr. Sandro Pradella as speaker.

This one-day intensive program focuses on tooth preparation principles for indirect esthetic restorations, including crowns, bridges, veneers, and inlays. Participants will explore material selection, finish line design, prosthetically driven preparation techniques, and provisional management.

Special emphasis will be placed on adhesive cementation protocols, composite cements, surface conditioning steps, polymerization procedures, and finishing techniques to ensure long-term clinical success and structural integrity of restorations.

Who the course is aimed at
Dentists - Dental Technicians - Recent graduates - Students

This course is designed for dentists, prosthodontists, and restorative and cosmetic dentistry professionals who wish to deepen their knowledge of tooth preparation for fixed prosthodontics in anterior and posterior regions, with a special focus on aesthetic areas.

It is ideal for:

  • Dentists aiming to improve the clinical predictability of indirect restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays).

  • Clinicians seeking to refine prosthetically guided tooth preparation techniques.

  • Professionals interested in updating their knowledge of adhesive cementation protocols and composite resin cements.

  • Dentists who want to optimize the management of provisional restorations in aesthetic zones, from pre-preparation to finishing.

  • Practitioners looking to enhance their understanding of dental adhesion, restorative materials, and step-by-step cementation procedures to reduce clinical errors and increase long-term success.

This course is particularly suitable for clinicians who wish to strengthen their expertise in esthetic fixed prosthodontics and metal-free restorative solutions, ensuring durability, stability, and long-term restorative success.
