Preparation workshops for crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays — plus temporaries and a five-appointment denture method
Kevin Kwiecien, Darin Dichter and Steve Ratcliff lead most of Mastering Restorative Dentistry: A Comprehensive Clinical Course, a set of nine compact modules with 43 lessons in just under six hours. It starts with outcome-based planning and material choice, then works through graded preparation designs for anterior and posterior crowns, veneers and partial-coverage restorations, before single-tooth provisionals and conventional complete dentures.

Inside the course
Planning and materials first
Short opening modules explain design-led preparation, gingival margin placement, the anterior and posterior armamentarium and which materials suit veneers and crowns. A closing 11-minute lesson compares partial coverage with full crowns.
Four technique workshops
Each workshop pairs an introduction with a series of preparations of increasing reduction, so you can see how tooth structure, material strength and aesthetics trade off across anterior crowns, posterior crowns, veneers and inlays or onlays.
Provisionals and dentures
An eight-step provisional sequence uses a putty matrix and quadrant impression, including how to rebuild a broken tooth for the matrix and add contacts or margins. The denture module covers physiologic and definitive impressions, records, centric relation methods, try-in and delivery.
Built for
- Early-career dentistsCompact, visual prep references to revisit before a case.
- Dentists returning to fixed prosthodonticsA structured refresher on preparation designs and current materials.
Curriculum
Before you buy
How detailed can 43 lessons in under six hours be?
Lessons average about eight minutes, so they work as focused technique demonstrations rather than long lectures.
Is there overlap with the full-arch implant course by the same faculty?
Some instructors are shared, but topics differ; this one has no implant content.
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.
