Ceramic layering, thin veneers and individual dentures from a Hamburg master technician
Hamburg-trained master dental technician Jan Schünemann opens his laboratory routine in Removable and Fixed Restorations. Unlocking the Secrets of Aesthetics. Six lessons (10 h 25 min) move between layered and stained ceramics, the future of dental porcelain, veneer work spanning decades, minimally invasive veneers, and the design and fabrication of complete removable dentures.
- 6lessons
- 10 h 25 minof video
- 25 yrsof veneer follow-up
What you’ll be able to do
- Choose between stained, layered and multilayer ceramics and control fluorescence of zirconia
- Analyse and match shade using a colour calibrator and internal characterisation
- Plan minimally invasive veneers with wax-up, mock-up and silicone index
- Transfer facial asymmetry and esthetic data from clinic to laboratory
- Set up complete denture teeth by face form, with characterised gum and phonetic testing
Inside the course
Ceramic craft
Schünemann compares analogue and digital approaches, stresses the incisal edge, and shows colouring, texture, baking, glazing and polishing for anterior crowns, including his “30-minute crown” and a full digital ceramic workflow.
Models, articulators and measurement
A detailed young-patient rehabilitation covers cast analysis, Pindex dies, reference planes of Amann Girrbach, SAM and KaVo articulators, and his own clinometer and esthetic data analyser.
Veneers over the long term
Two lessons review cases followed for many years, bleaching under veneers, international dentist-technician communication, material choice and step-by-step layering for minimally invasive veneers.
Removable prosthetics
Facebow use, tooth selection, individual gum modelling, acrylic behaviour, posture and occlusion and the FSO speech test, ending with a full video protocol for making an individual denture.
Built for
- Dental technicians and ceramistsLayering and shade strategies from someone with decades behind the bench.
- Restorative dentistsBetter communication with the lab on veneers and dentures.

Before you buy
Do some lessons cover the same ground?
Yes. Lesson 4 repeats several ceramic topics from lesson 1, and lessons 5 and 6 share their denture fundamentals.
Is All-on-4 prosthetics taught in detail?
It is mentioned in the course overview, but no lesson outline lists it, so do not buy the course mainly for full-arch implant work.
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.
