Thanks to composite materials that are well resistant to mechanical loads and the use of correct protocols that reproduce natural aesthetics and quality adhesion, the boundaries and possibilities of direct restorations are constantly expanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main aim of the course is training in the protocol for diagnosis and treatment of complex cases of pathological tooth wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e«The Index Technique» is an innovative protocol for increasing the occlusal vertical dimension without preparation. It will also explain how and when to perform adhesion to teeth with increased wear and how to apply partial additive indirect composite and\/or ceramic restorations depending on the indications. A step-by-step review of treatment protocols will be presented with photo and video materials to clearly demonstrate work methods in full analogue and digital approaches. Compared with traditional prosthetic methods, the use of this protocol significantly reduces patients' financial costs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cul class=\"dentico-learning-outcomes\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssess pathological tooth wear and determine indications or contraindications for a no‑prep index technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlan occlusal vertical dimension changes with wax‑up and mock‑up to validate functional and aesthetic goals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelect appropriate direct, partial indirect composite, or ceramic restorative approaches based on wear diagnosis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplement digital and analogue workflows for no‑prep additive restorations while ensuring predictable adhesion protocols\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you will learn\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCourse lessons\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"dentico-lesson-list\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"dentico-lesson-card\"\u003e \u003ch4 class=\"dentico-lesson-heading\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"dentico-lesson-number\"\u003eLesson 1.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"dentico-lesson-name\"\u003eThe Index Technique.
