Scaling the Veneer Market with Lithium Disilicate: Digital & Pressable Workflow Strategies for Modern Labs
2026-05-15 15:00 - 16:00 UTC
Course Description:

The demand for minimally invasive veneers continues to grow, creating new opportunities for dental laboratories. In this one-hour lecture, Phil Brisebois, CDT, explores how lab owners and technicians can properly deploy digital and pressable lithium disilicate workflows using Amber Lithium Disilicate. Attendees will learn practical strategies to improve efficiency, expand case acceptance, and deliver highly aesthetic outcomes across simple to complex restorations while supporting minimally to non-invasive treatment protocols.

Learning Objectives:After attending this lecture, participants will be able to:

• Identify when to utilize digital versus pressable lithium disilicate workflows for veneers and complex restorative cases

• Implement efficient workflows using Amber Lithium Disilicate to support minimally to non-invasive protocols

• Expand laboratory services to compete effectively in the growing veneer market

• Achieve predictable, high-esthetic outcomes across simple to advanced lithium disilicate restorations
