Bleach veneers – Viktor Scherbakov

Bleach veneers – Viktor Scherbakov restoration is a large field of aesthetic reconstructive dentistry techniques, a separate genre that becomes an effective instrument and a powerful marketing tool in the doctor’s hands if it is used with a right approach.

In this webinar, we will study in detail all the stages of the implementation of Bleach restorations in various shades configurations, with different tooth positions and even in the conditions of strong abrasion. Among other topics we will also discuss manual techniques in the doctor’s work, the principles of post-surgical care, finishing of the composite, and many more.
