Dr. Mauro Fradeani reflects on four decades of clinical practice, tracing how his esthetic rehabilitation concepts, materials and techniques have evolved and matured since the start of his career.
In this lecture, Dr. Mauro Fradeani looks back on forty years of clinical practice in esthetic and prosthetic dentistry, tracing how his own approach to complex rehabilitations has changed over that period. Rather than presenting a fixed protocol, the course is structured as a longitudinal account of how concepts, materials and techniques in esthetic rehabilitation have developed since the early years of his career.
The presentation traces the shift from largely empirical, experience-based esthetic dentistry toward the more systematic, evidence-based approach to esthetic analysis and treatment planning that Fradeani is known for today. It also covers the evolution of restorative materials, from metal-ceramic systems toward contemporary all-ceramic and monolithic solutions, and how a deeper understanding of biologic width and soft tissue behavior has changed the way complex cases are planned and executed.
