Porcelain Stratification

Learning tricks of ceramic stratification
Learning tricks of ceramic stratification

Porcelain Stratification was the reason why the last weekend of march we’ve organized a private course. The course was given by our friend and superb professional Antonio Pérez Aceves.

It was celebrated at the excellent facilities of Jident lab in Cornellà de Llobregat with the support of the company Heraeus-Kulzer.

We could know and manipulate the newest Heraeus materials and we could learn a lot of practical tips and tricks in a very comprehensive and useful course. Antonio Pérez Aceves is a very talented and entertaining professor. We had a lot of fun.

We’d like to thank Professor Perez-Aceves, Jident and Heraeus (specially Mr. Jordi Danés) for making this course possible.

In the pictures you can see part of our team from Dental Clinic Padros during the hands-on part of the course. (pictures 1, 2 and 3)
