Ceramic Layering: Protocols of the World's Leading Schools - Dentistry eBooks

Course Overview

Presented by dental technicians Oliver Brix, Taylan Sari, and Chien-Ming Kang, this course is built around a "watch and repeat" video demonstration format, letting viewers follow along as each master demonstrates their layering technique in real time rather than describing it in the abstract. Rather than one single school's approach, the course brings together protocols from several of the world's leading ceramics schools.

The curriculum covers the additive layering technique for building shape and shade, along with the minimal thin layer technique used with multilayer zirconia — a distinct approach suited to modern, thinner restorations. Internal stain technique is also demonstrated, along with methods for forming natural surface morphology and texture, and finishing restorations with hand polishing rather than mechanical polishing alone.

Across 9 videos and 6.5 hours of content, the course is designed as a genuinely practical skills course for dental technicians and prosthodontists who want to see and replicate expert-level ceramic layering technique.
