MiCD – Driven Direct Aesthetic Restorations with Injection Techniques
Venue: Bangladesh Military Museum Conference Hall, Bijoy Sarani, Dhaka
Time: 10.30am – 3.30pm
Date: 13 September 2026
Synopsis
Contemporary aesthetic dentistry is increasingly moving toward minimal intervention, maximum preservation and predictable outcomes. The introduction of Injectable composite have transformed the way clinicians deliver aesthetic treatment, but true success lies beyond the injection technique itself.
This carefully designed half-day program will introduce the principles of Minimally Invasive Cosmetic Dentistry (MiCD) and clinical protocols developed to achieve highly aesthetic, predictable, and long-lasting anterior restorations. Drawing on years of clinical experience, Dr. Sonny shares a systematic approach that prioritizes maximum enamel preservation, natural aesthetics, functional harmony, and long-term predictability.
Participants will learn how to integrate MiCD principles throughout the entire treatment journey—from diagnosis and smile design to matrix fabrication, composite injection, finishing, and maintenance. The Live demonstration emphasizes on showcasing a simplified, repeatable protocol that enable clinicians to consistently create lifelike restorations while minimizing unnecessary tooth preparation.
Through a combination of clinical concepts, practical protocols, and real-world applications, participants will experience how injectable composite technology can serve as a powerful, guided approach to translating a carefully planned aesthetic design into a precise, minimally invasive direct restoration.
