Advanced Direct Bonding in the Smile Frame: Innovative Protocols to Achieve Perfect Esthetics, Improve Treatment Simplicity, Reliability and Longevity
July 31 - August 3, 2025
Course Overview
In the past, more attractive smiles, improved dental esthetics and durable results have been directly linked to ceramic veneers and crowns. Modern composite resin technology has challenged this assumption and is becoming the favorable choice of treatment for anterior teeth.
Moreover, direct composite restorations allow for minimally invasive or no preparation at all when modifying existing tooth anatomy or replacing decayed tissues; this constitutes an unparalleled advantage of “free-hand bonding”.
Important Advantages of “Free-hand” Bonding:
Bio-functional – less load stress on dental structures
Higher potential for adaptability
Be in full control of shape and shade
Tremendous longevity, easily maintainable
Cost reduction for the patients
The “Dietschi” technique: simplified, reliable, fast
Increased revenue for the practice
Direct Composite Restorations – the New State-of-the-Art
While resin composites are universally considered for fillings and moderate chippings, today, they have many more indications. Didier Dietschi will teach you the full potential of advanced direct bonding in the smile frame. You will learn innovative protocols to achieve perfect esthetics, to correct functional deficiencies, and to improve treatment simplicity, reliability, and longevity.
Today, “Free-hand” bonding has become the primary treatment choice for anterior teeth.
Explore the New Potential of Resin Composites
With his didactic teaching, Dider Dietschi will make it easy for you to overcome your drawbacks in composites. After attending his hands-on course, you will apply the full potential of modern composite indications to your patients with ease, efficient, fast, and most esthetic.
Your best option for advanced composite techniques is by one-on-one with the Master himself, Didier Dietschi, the mentor of many icons in esthetic dentistry and the developer of the esthetic, functional – Natural Layering Concept. A milestone in direct composite restorations and smile enhancement.

“My experience at IDEA with Dr. Dietschi was truly an enriching one, both professionally and personally. It is not often enough that we have the opportunity to learn and interact with those colleagues who have chosen to elevate our Dental Profession to its highest level.
Dr. Robert Lamb and his team at IDEA embody that same elevation of the Continuing Dental Education experience to its highest level. In the description of his organization’s dedication to excellence, Wynton Marsalis (Artistic Director: Jazz at Lincoln Center) said, “We choose to live under the banner of quality and not mediocrity”.
Everything about IDEA’s Mission and its performance speak to that theme, not only for our work, but for how we choose to live every day! THANK YOU to Bob Lamb and the whole IDEA Team, …keep on!!”

This course was exceptional. I've been placing composite veneers for years and I always struggled with shade, anatomy and staying on time. This course has given me the tools I need to provide better restorations, for my patients, while doing so faster, which is better for the patient and my practice
Great staff and instructors. Applicable hands on experience, that will be readily implementable and start adding value immediately to my practice! Very hospitable and comfortable learning environment.
The information presented was very eye opening and I am a better dentist now that I have completed this course. I would recommend this course to any dentist looking to improve their anterior composite work.
What an amazing environment! Conducive to learning and acknowledging other professionals. The level of learning exceeds the expectations and makes you feel a real professional contributing to great levels of dentistry
This course with Didier was masterful. He is a pro's pro. The presentations were amazing. Great combination of simplifying tough protocols to achieve outstanding esthetic results. I most enjoyed to focus on systematic approaches to make complete cases easier to handle
This is my first time taking such course, and it was a last-minute decision… The whole process has more than exceeded my expectations. I felt welcomed, with an amazing crowd that has behaved like a family. The quality of the course, facility, speaker/instructor has been top notch. I'm grateful & privileged to be here... will definitely be back.
"Right from the beginning, IDEA had a very different feel to it, personalized and individual care. You can tell that they care about advancing the skills of their participants and even though they are brilliant clinicians, there is no ego involved in sharing their expertise…”
"This is one of the best courses I have been to. Didier is an exceptional speaker and the knowledge and enthusiasm he brings to his course is contagious! I am looking forward to going to the clinic on Monday morning and practicing the skills I have learnt here today. I would recommend Didier and IDEA to anyone who wants to do exceptional dentistry EVERYDAY in a predictable manner."
I have been to many composite courses, and they were complicated and made the technique difficult. Dr. Dietschi simplified it all and was personable and made it simple!
