Why Totally Composite
Predictable composite bonding, from the very next day
Great composite bonding depends on a clear protocol: isolation, bonding, shade selection, layering and finishing. Totally Composite gives you that protocol step by step, and every technique is designed to be efficient, so you can complete treatment in a realistic appointment time and at a fee that is financially viable for you and fair for your patients.
Every technique comes straight from Freshdental Clinic, where Monik and his team use it with patients every day. In ten years the course has run 280 times in 14 countries, training more than 6,200 clinicians, including many of the UK’s leading composite dentists. It is one of the most widely attended hands-on composite courses globally.
What the course covers
26 topics over two intensive days
Composite bonding and veneers
Partial-coverage anterior composites, direct composite veneers, single-layer vs multilayer, and when (and when not) to prepare.
Shade and layering
The natural layering concept, shading systems, shade selection, and using stains, tints and effects.
Isolation and bonding
Anterior and posterior isolation, creating the right substrate, and a reliable bonding protocol.
Diastema closure
Closing spaces predictably, with a hands-on diastema closure on the day.
Posterior composites
Ideal contact points, sectional matrices, layering strategies, bulk fills, managing failures and repairs.
Planning and practice
Efficient, financially viable treatment: planning, consent, patient communication and fee setting, plus an unbiased look at current materials.
Hands-on practicals
You do it yourself, at your own station
Much of the course is practical, with faculty beside you as you work. During the hands-on sessions you complete:
- Anterior and posterior isolation
- A layered Class IV incisor
- A direct composite veneer
- A diastema closure
- A Class II molar
- Finishing and polishing
You also try several materials from different manufacturers, so you can choose what works best for you.
