Vertical preparation and BOPT from seven clinicians — preparation, provisionals, gingival shaping and lab work
The B.O.P.T. concept library: new and updated protocols brings together 14 lessons (almost 15 hours) on the biologically oriented preparation technique from Fabio Scutella, Aman Bharti, Christian Abad Coronel, Martin Laguna, Rubén Agustín Panadero, Rafa Vila Tello and Anes Luís. It is aimed at the dentist and technician working as a pair, and covers edgeless preparation on teeth and implants, provisional contouring, gingitage, material choice and analog, digital and chairside workflows.

What you’ll be able to do
- Prepare teeth with a vertical, edgeless finish line using the right burs and avoid typical mistakes
- Use provisional contours to move the gingival margin apically or coronally without surgery
- Decide when gingitage or gingivectomy is indicated and how long tissues need to heal
- Apply BOPT principles to implant restorations and post-extraction sites
- Choose between lithium disilicate and zirconia for vertical geometry, and bond no-prep veneers
- Run a digital or chairside BOPT workflow, from scanning the margin to full-arch cases
Inside the course
Why vertical geometry works
Scutella’s four lessons build the scientific case for finish line geometry, show his Simplified Prosthetic Protocol with dedicated instruments, and discuss impression timing, scanning of vertical preparations and the technician’s view. He also presents no-prep laminate veneers for peg-shaped and tetracycline-stained teeth.
Soft tissue as the design target
Laguna explains the three mechanisms that drive tissue behaviour and how many millimetres of margin change are predictable. Panadero adds histology, contraindications, ischaemia control and a digital process for virtual gingiva from STL files.
Teeth, implants and digital routes
Bharti covers biological width, Vertiprep burs and marginless crowns on teeth and implants; Abad Coronel focuses on preparation errors, provisionals as diagnostic tools and cementation. Vila Tello and Anes Luís show chairside scanning, gingival leveling, eggshell provisionals and digital crown design.
Built for
- Prosthodontists and restorative dentistsA single reference for switching from shoulder to edgeless preparation.
- Dental techniciansSeveral lessons explain how to fabricate crowns without a defined margin.

Before you buy
Do some lessons cover the same ground twice?
Yes, some — with seven authors, basics such as biological width and horizontal-versus-vertical preparation come up more than once, each with a different emphasis.
Is the course only about natural teeth?
No; implant restorations, post-extraction management and full-arch chairside cases are also covered.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
