Master Class - How To Get Seamless Margins in Anterior Composites
with Dr Vishal Gupta
For 40 years dentists have been using the conservative approach of direct resin bonded composites to restore damaged/carious teeth.
But while it's a conservative method, mastering the technique can be challenging. There are times when you will perfectly match the shade and other times you will fail.
There are times when you are working towards a beautiful restoration and suddenly you see white demarcation lines. Or the restoration is looking grey.
In this masterclass, Dr Vishal Gupta shares his skills and the aesthetic considerations involved in restoring anterior teeth with composites.
He discusses the techniques you have available so you can optimise at every clinical-stage making your anterior composites more predictable and more successful, saving time and stress for you and your patient.

Anterior Composite: Shape, Polish & Light - Practical Strategies for Predictable Aesthetic Success
with Dr. Sam Cope
Anterior composites rarely fail because of the material. They fail because of shape and light.
Small errors in line angles, contour and surface texture can make restorations look dull or artificial, even when shade and bonding are correct.
In this masterclass, Dr Sam Cope will share a practical framework for controlling shape, polish and light reflection to create natural, predictable anterior composites across different systems.
Clear principles. Repeatable decisions. More consistent aesthetic results.
By the end of this masterclass, you will be able to:
-
Identify why anterior composites look dull or unnatural
-
Control light reflection through shape and surface design
-
Improve polish and finishing for long-term aesthetics
-
Achieve faster, more consistent outcomes

“Early in my career, I believed aesthetic success came from using the ‘right’ composite or layering technique. Yet despite good bonding and accurate shade selection, some restorations still looked dull or unnatural. The turning point came when I shifted my focus from materials to shape, surface texture and light interaction. By simplifying my approach and understanding why restorations looked wrong, my results became far more predictable and efficient. This lecture reflects those lessons from practice and teaching.”
