• Want Better Looking Preps? This One Thing Could Change Your Preps Forever

  Have you ever wondered why your preps look rough and bumpy? Have you tried every polishing diamond, rubbers and stones and it still doesn't make a difference? I've got good news, the solution may be found in this episode💡. In this episode, I'll break down the critical role of handpiece selection in aesthetic dentistry—especially when it comes to precision veneer preparations. While most of us learned on air turbine handpieces at university, electric handpieces offer a game-changing level of control, accuracy, and reliability. This episode explains why electric handpieces are essential for high-end aesthetic outcomes—and how switching will transform your preps 🥳. 📌 Resources & Links: Join the waitlist for the Mastering Porcelain Veneers program and get access to early enrolment.
