Abstract:

Nowadays, More and more people are seeking to have an attractive smile and enhance their appearance in general.  Social media plays an important role to increase that effect, especially with young adults and middle age population. Photos, videos, and selfies in the social media may evoke feelings of esthetic inadequacy or issues of one’s self-image.

Direct veneers are one of the conservative cosmetic approaches that improve teeth shape, shade, alignment, dimensions, anomalies, smile and teeth relations to lips and face. It involves no or minimal preparations to original teeth, it is easy to repair or modify even after finished, which makes that option a very appealing to many dentists and patients who are seeking a conservative minimally intervention technique with a reversibility.

Introduction:

During this course, we will elaborate and demonstrate the steps and protocols in three different direct veneers scenarios, A single veneer on central incisor, free hand veneers on upper teeth and the new 3D guided mould or injection technique based on DSD and 3d printing.    This workshop is designed to train dentists how can they produce a super star result with an easy technique which will increase their clinical control and impress their patients.

Learning Objectives:

• Indications of direct veneers and indirect veneers.
• Smile design, smile analysis and planning for each case.
• The current materials available for each technique.
• Monochromatic, bichromatic, polychromatic layering and 3D guided injection technique.
• Form and shade analysis and reproduction.

Abstract:

Researchers and faculty have always wanted to conduct research. However, they may need a help in their research. This workshop will help to understand how to conduct research for ISI journal starting with an idea, design thinking methods and research process. Then, writing a manuscript and select the appropriate journal. This workshop also will give you new tools to infuse creativity into your research process. Our goal is to spot common mistakes and limitations in the process of ISI journals which will help you in the future in design your research and explore how design thinking can improve the research process to make us more innovative scholars or scientists.

Introduction:

Researchers are now producing more papers than ever before. Consequently, high-impact journals are being overwhelmed with manuscripts, and journal editors have in turn become extremely strict. For these reasons, investing more time and effort in all steps in the beginning of any research project can save you a considerable amount of time and effort in the long run, and it increases your chance of acceptance in a high impact journal. These steps include idea, design, analysis and so on. Moreover, in contrast to the old days of publishing, we still need to answers several old and new research questions. However, these answers should be in different and novel ways.

Learning Objectives:

1. Apply new concept to have a new innovative, novel, and original ideas
2. Identify common mistakes and errors in research design, analysis, and representation of qualitative research
3. Assess a generic overview of data collection methods and research design
4. Differentiate the process of ISI article writing and journal selection
5. Apply the current concept in addressing the reviewers’ comments
