In September, CDT Michele Temperani truly spoiled us with knowledge at his sold-out events in Cape Town - a two-day Hands-on Masterclass and an insightful Evening Lecture hosted at the new Ivodent Ivoclar Partner Academy.

A master technician in every sense, Michele shared his deep expertise on metal-free materials, shade control and standardisation in fixed prosthodontics, guiding both clinicians and technicians through the art and science of predictable aesthetics.

During the hands-on masterclass, attendees worked directly with IPS e.max® lithium disilicate and zirconia, gaining practical experience and fine-tuning their skills under Michele’s guidance. From streamlined protocols to advanced Ivocolor and 3D painting techniques, every moment was packed with insight and precision.

The evening lecture continued the learning, offering clear, structured workflows that bridge the clinic–lab continuum and ensure function, durability, and repeatability in modern restorative dentistry.

A huge thank you to Michele for an incredible two days of education and inspiration. And to everyone who joined us in making this event such a success. 🎉
