Perfect Gold Castings: The Easy Way
Instructor: Jochen W. Plate, D.D.S. (Visiting from Wuppertal, Germany)
Dates: June 16-17, 2006
Course Description

Beautiful smooth castings coming out of the investment and directly fitting to the die-itīs not a trick, itīs a "Fadal" , a predictable result of a step-by-step procedure. Dr. Plate will teach the very special gold technique that was developed by Dr Robert Fadal during his 35 years of practicing gold chair and lab-side. This technique does not need high end machines or expensive materials but safely guides you to a perfect result and is easy to learn. The lecture will include treatment planning on mounted study models striving for an occlusal concept of a sequential laterotrusion and all laboratory procedures for the perfect fitting of the cast gold restoration. The technique can also be transferred to pfm-restorations.

This course is for dental technicians as well as for dentists and best for teams heading for a maximum result. We can learn from each other, get aware of lab- and chair-side problems and develop individual solutions.
