Frank Spear on the smile zone — eight lessons from crown prep to anterior implant temporaries
In Smile Zone Mastery: Anterior Restorations Made Predictable, Seattle educator Frank Spear focuses eight lessons and more than eight hours on the most demanding part of the mouth. The course runs from cementing all-ceramic crowns and porcelain veneers, through endodontically treated teeth and multiple missing anteriors, to single-tooth implants and their temporaries.

Inside the course
Cementation done right
Spear separates high-strength alumina and zirconia cores from pressable and feldspathic ceramics that need bonding, then walks through veneer cementation as a distinct protocol.
Difficult anterior scenarios
Veneering endodontically treated teeth, and two lessons on multiple missing anteriors — including how to recover esthetics when bone loss complicates the case.
Preparation and implants
A long lesson on preparing anterior full-coverage crowns leads into single-tooth implant placement and temporaries, where contour drives the final soft-tissue result.
