Exocad Level 2: Beyond the Basics - Anterior Aesthetics, Provisionals & Advanced Bridges
30 JANUARY 2027 · THE MARKET CROSS, BURY ST EDMUNDS
Move beyond straightforward restorations and start using Exocad with greater control, confidence and creative freedom.
Once you've mastered the fundamentals of Exocad, the next step is learning how to approach cases where the software alone can't make the decisions for you.
Exocad Level 2 takes your digital design skills beyond basic crowns and simple restorations, introducing more advanced workflows across anterior aesthetics, provisional restorations and complex bridge design.
This hands-on course focuses on developing your ability to critically assess a case, control the design and make purposeful adjustments, rather than simply accepting what the software initially proposes.
You'll build on the foundations of Level 1 and develop a more refined approach to restorative design, with practical techniques you can take back into your digital workflow and begin applying the very next day.
What you'll learn
During the course, you will:
- Progress beyond fundamental Exocad workflows into more advanced restorative design.
- Develop your approach to anterior aesthetic restorations, where morphology, proportion and symmetry become increasingly important.
- Learn how to assess and refine anterior tooth form to achieve a more considered aesthetic result.
- Work through digital workflows for provisional restorations.
- Understand how provisionals can be incorporated into the wider restorative and treatment planning process.
- Progress into more advanced bridge design and understand the additional considerations involved in multi-unit restorations.
- Develop greater control over contacts, occlusion, emergence, contours and morphology.
- Learn to critically evaluate Exocad's initial proposals and make purposeful design modifications.
- Understand how restorative design decisions influence the final manufactured result.
- Identify common problems within more complex designs and develop a systematic approach to correcting them.
- Build a faster, more confident and repeatable approach to everyday Exocad design.
Course aims & objectives
The aim of Exocad Level 2 is to take delegates who understand the fundamentals of digital design and help them develop greater control over more demanding restorative cases.
By the end of the course, you should be more confident working with anterior aesthetics, provisional restorations and advanced bridge workflows, while developing a stronger understanding of the restorative principles behind your digital designs.
The focus moves from simply knowing how to use Exocad towards understanding how to use it to make better, more deliberate design decisions.
What you'll leave with
Greater design confidence.
Move beyond basic workflows and become more comfortable taking control when a case requires more than Exocad's initial proposal.
A more refined approach to anterior aesthetics.
Develop your understanding of morphology, proportion and symmetry when designing restorations in the aesthetic zone.
Practical provisional workflows.
Understand how to design provisionals and where they can fit within your wider digital restorative workflow.
Confidence with more advanced bridges.
Build on simple bridge design and understand the additional considerations involved as cases become more complex.
Greater independence in Exocad.
Learn to critically assess and modify your own work rather than relying on automated proposals.
Skills you can apply the next day.
Leave with practical techniques and workflows that can be transferred directly into your own digital cases.
Who is this course for?
Exocad Level 2 is designed for dentists, dental technicians and digital dental professionals who already understand the fundamentals of Exocad and are ready to progress into more advanced restorative design.
It is ideal for delegates who are comfortable with straightforward crowns and basic workflows but want to develop their capabilities across anterior aesthetics, provisionals and more complex bridge cases.
If Level 1 teaches you how to build a solid Exocad foundation, Level 2 is where you start expanding what you can confidently design.
