Dental Anatomy Applied to Clinical Practice

Morphological Perception and Dental Sculpture

Lisbon · 26 – 27 June 2026 · In person · Portuguese

🔍 Can you really see what you're doing?

Most dentists work with refined techniques, quality materials, and modern equipment…
…yet still feel uncertain about the aesthetic outcome.

What if the issue isn’t in your technique, but in your morphological perception?

✨ Transformation begins with a new perspective.

Mastering dental sculpture is not about manual skill —
— it’s about deeply understanding shape, texture, symmetry, and the unique identity of each tooth.

This course doesn’t just teach you how to sculpt.

🧠 It teaches you to through the eyes of an artist with the precision of a clinician.

🎯 Course Objective

To empower dental professionals to understand, visualise and replicate dental anatomy with excellence, integrating form and function into aesthetic rehabilitations that are both predictable and highly valued.

Training Objective

This training has as its main objective to develop the dentist’s morphological perception, a competence fundamental for the correct interpretation and reproduction of natural dental anatomy. By understanding that perception represents an essential part of the learning process, the course proposes an approach that goes beyond manual execution, focusing on the ability to observe, analyse and recognise anatomical patterns in a conscious and structured manner. Over the two days, participants are guided through a progressive learning process, which integrates:

Observation of natural teeth
Schematic drawing
Dental sculpture

This methodology allows the identification of nuances, morphological variations and specific characteristics of each dental group, promoting a deep understanding of forms, volumes, transitions and textures that define natural anatomy. The final objective of the training is to enable participants to apply this knowledge directly in clinical practice, making anatomical construction more predictable, safe and natural. By developing a trained eye and an refined anatomical reading, the dentist significantly improves the aesthetic and functional quality of their restorations, raising the level of their clinical results.

Content

Analysis of dental morphology through schematic drawing
Sculpting of the upper first premolar
Sculpting of the upper second premolar
Sculpting of the upper first molar
Sculpting of the upper central incisor
Sculpting of the upper lateral incisor
Sculpting of the upper canine
Finishing with fine finishing and texturing

Analysis of natural teeth to reinforce the development of morphological perception, a competence fundamental to the learning process.

💡 What changes after this course?

📈 Your work becomes more precise, aesthetic and profitable.
🎯 You gain greater clinical recognition and more confidence in execution.
💬 Your patients recognise the true value of your craft.
💎 Your sculpture becomes your signature.

🧩 Main challenges this course solves:

Lack of anatomical clarity in aesthetic rehabilitations
Insecurity when replicating anterior teeth
Restorations with a “weak” shape, lacking morphological identity
Low predictability and frequent rework
Difficulty standing out clinically in the European market

Who is Reginaldo A. Marcos da Silva?

Reginaldo A. Marcos da Silva is a Dental Prosthesis Technician (TPD) with over 25 years of experience in the field of dental prostheses, having started his career in Campinas, São Paulo. Recognised for combining art, aesthetic sensitivity and technical precision, he develops all his cases entirely by hand, valuing craftsmanship applied to dental prosthetics and the faithful reproduction of natural anatomy.

A specialist in aesthetic rehabilitation, he focuses on zirconia and lithium disilicate, combining occlusal and aesthetic planning based on waxing. In 2017, he founded his own laboratory, where he continues to develop highly technical work, maintaining an authorial and rigorous approach in each clinical case.

In addition to his laboratory work, Reginaldo is also a consistent educator, teaching hands-on courses in dental anatomy throughout Brazil. He is also the creator of an online teaching programme, which has already trained more than 500 students, actively contributing to the training and development of professionals in the field of prosthetics and dental aesthetics. In 2022, he presented his progressive sculpting technique at the International Dental Prosthesis Congress in São Paulo, his work being inspired by renowned masters such as Hilton Riquieri and Paulo Kano.
