Module Details
Module One: Tuesday, September XX
5 PM PT / 8 PM ET
Technique #1: Island Layering & The Starburst Bevel
60-Minute Live Session + Recording Access
The Fracture that Never Happened: Build Class IV Restorations that Disappear into Natural Tooth Structure
Most composite restorations look artificial for one reason: they’re built flat from the start.
This module teaches you how to break away from traditional layering and begin creating restorations with depth, variation and natural light dynamics. Use Island Layering, a proprietary layering sequence that changes everything about how a Class IV composite is built.
Island Layering combined with the Starburst Technique allows you to erase the boundary between tooth and restoration—no visible margin, no fracture line, no evidence you were ever there.
Learn how to:
-
Use island layering to build internal structure and dimension
-
Apply the starburst technique to create natural light dispersion
-
Avoid flat, monochromatic composites from the very first layer

Module Two: Tuesday, September XX
5 PM PT / 8 PM ET
Technique #2: The Light Line
60-Minute Live Session + Recording Access
Line Angle Anatomy & Light Reflection: Develop Control Over Shape and Form
Restore the line angle geometry that bounces light off the proximal exactly like virgin enamel, and watch the dark interproximal shadow disappear completely.
Learn how to:
-
Create natural contours and line angles
-
Maintain structure throughout the process
-
Avoid flattening anatomy during refinement
Outcome: More predictable results with less time spent adjusting and reworking.

Module Four: Tuesday, October XX

Technique #4: The Complete Provisional System
60-Minute Live Session + Recording Access
Proof of Concept: Build a Predictable System
Provisionals are not just temporary—they are where esthetics, function and patient acceptance are validated. This module shows you how to use provisionals as a clinical tool, not just a placeholder.
Learn how to:
-
Create provisionals that guide final esthetic outcomes
-
Use temporaries to test shape, function, and patient approval
-
Communicate more effectively with the lab through provisional design

Module Three: Tuesday, October XX
5 PM PT / 8 PM ET
Technique #3: The Five Minute Finish
60-Minute Live Session + Recording Access
Understand Texture and Light Reflection: Surface Anatomy & Composite Polish Protocol
Every dentist is taught to “polish until it shines.” The problem is that chasing shine flattens everything. Natural enamel has texture—lobes, fossae, and surface lines—that scatter and reflect light in a way a glass-smooth composite never will. Most dentists polish all of that away without realizing it.
The Five Minute Finish is a simple, fast, repeatable protocol that brings the anatomy back—restoring surface texture, lobe definition, and micro-anatomy to create restorations that rival the best ceramics.
Learn how to:
-
Learn how to avoid over-polishing so you can preserve natural enamel texture and prevent flat, lifeless restorations
-
Identify and recreate key anatomical features—lobes, fossae and surface lines—to control how light reflects and improve esthetics
-
Apply a simple, five-minute finishing protocol to consistently add micro-anatomy and achieve ceramic-level results in every restoration
Outcome: Restorations that blend seamlessly and reflect light like natural teeth.

Technique #5: The White Spot Decision Framework
60-Minute Live Session + Recording Access
Save the Surface
Most dentists reach for the drill. The best ones know when not to. A complete decision framework for white spot lesions that protects tooth structure, delivers natural results, and restores enamel.
