Dietschi, Ammannato and Takahashi on bonded restorations for worn and damaged teeth — freehand composite, index technique and onlays
Three leading names in adhesive dentistry share Gidedental Direct and Indirect Adhesive Restorations: Didier Dietschi from Geneva, Riccardo Ammannato from Italy and Noboru Takahashi from Tokyo. In 11 lessons and 9 h 45 min, they show minimally invasive ways to rebuild anterior and posterior teeth with direct composite, manage erosion and abrasion, and choose between the index technique and composite or ceramic onlays.

What you’ll be able to do
- Rebuild anterior teeth with freehand composite bonding guided by bio-aesthetic principles
- Intercept tooth wear early and treat erosion and abrasion conservatively
- Select direct adhesive options for front and back teeth
- Restore a worn dentition with the index technique or bonded onlays
- Speed up posterior work with a simplified layering method
Inside the course
Didier Dietschi: bonding and wear (3 h 15 min)
Freehand Bonding 2.0 opens his part, followed by interceptive care for early wear and conservative full rehabilitation of erosion and abrasion. Dietschi co-authored “Adhesive Metal-free Restorations” and has published more than 115 papers and chapters.
Riccardo Ammannato: from single teeth to full arches (4 h 12 min)
Four lessons compare direct options in the anterior and posterior regions, then tackle worn dentitions non-invasively with the index technique or composite and ceramic onlays, plus a practical tips session. An EAED active member, he graduated from Genoa University.
Noboru Takahashi and live Q&A
A 23-minute lesson from the Tokyo clinician presents his simplified posterior layering. Two recorded online sessions with Ammannato from autumn 2020 add office-hours discussion and a live treatment planning session.
