The Mastering Smiles program is an intensive 3-day workshop mentored by Dr. Janu Shah, designed to give clinicians a complete, evidence-based understanding of porcelain veneers—from case selection to final bonding. Combining evidence-based lectures, live patient demonstrations, and immersive hands-on training in a state-of-the-art simulation lab, this course provides participants with the confidence and skills to seamlessly integrate veneers into daily practice.

Participants will not only learn the science and artistry of veneers but will also gain practical clinical experience, right from diagnosis to preparation, temporization, try-in, and bonding, under expert mentorship.

What Makes This Course Unique

1. Live Patient Training - Follow a complete veneer workflow on a live patient—from diagnosis and treatment planning to preparation, temporization, try-in, and final bonding under rubber dam.
2. Hands-on Experience - Work with loupes in a modern simulation setting to practice different veneer preparation designs, temporization, digital smile design, scanning, and shade selection.
3. Evidence-Based Lectures & Case Presentations - Learn the latest protocols in treatment planning, photography, digital vs analogue workflows, and bonding—all backed by clinical evidence and real-world case studies.
4. Interactive Q&A and Troubleshooting - The learning doesn’t stop when the course ends. Participants will be part of a dedicated WhatsApp mentorship group, where we will continue to provide guidance, case discussions, and tips.
5. Complimentary Veneer Bur Kit - exactly what you need to get started on your smile design journey.
