Layers 2 — Direct Composites: The Styleitaliano Clinical Secrets

The second instalment of the Layers project, focused on solving with direct composite the problems that come up at the chair every day. Manauta, Salat, Devoto and Putignano, joined by a broad cast of guest clinicians, work through shade taking — from visual methods to digital tools — layering strategies, protocols for Class III, IV and V, cuspal protection and margin elevation in the posterior region, and the front-wing technique for closing diastemas without a prior wax-up. It closes with the morphology and polishing that make a restoration convincing, plus resources on photography and rubber dam isolation. A working manual in English, highly visual and close to the clinical gesture.
