5:30 “…that’s what we did to heal the heart. So often when I’m doing a smile it’s about the heart” I absolutely love that you mentioned this! We often strive for “textbook perfection” but oftentimes that is far from perfection in our patients’ eyes. If having rounded central incisors will make my patient feel good about herself, then I will do my darn best to give her the best rounded incisors she’s ever seen!

Right on! All the best.

Thank you Dr. Klim. I have always felt that I didn’t know what I was doing when matching shades. So upset the app is not available in the apple store. Already contacted my ivoclar rep. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Amazing summary of tips. It would make life simpler! Just one query, I am bonding my emax with heated composite. So, how do I select the composite shade considering using HT in all anterior and posterior cases?

[@KlimDDS]

The warm composite method is excellent. Same principle. How many composite shades do you have and what brand? Principle with HT, choose brighter options and tone down with a warmer cement color. This is the best of the best for HT e.max.

app is currently unavailabe .. why ?

[@KlimDDS]

Check with your Ivoclar rep

Does the App cover other ceramics, or just those of Ivoclar?

[@KlimDDS]

The app is produced by Ivoclar. However, the recommendation can be translated to other materials using the principles of ceramic value and shade selection. All the best.
