Protrusive Dental Podcast Everything Veneers – PDP021
Last week it was International Women’s Day, which makes me especially proud to share this absolute clinical blockbuster with one of the most inspirational Women in Dentistry – Dr Manrina Rhode.
In this very clinical episode of PDP, she teaches us about Veneers – she has been placing them for several years and has developed awesome systems in her practice for this.

The Protrusive Dental Pearl in this Episode is a Communication one! Let me know what you think.
We discuss:
- Manrina’s journey with cosmetic Dentistry and veneers – how did she get the exposure early on in her career?
- Ceramic vs composite veneers – composite has lifted off last few years, what has been your experience?
- What percentage of her patients have pre-restorative orthodontics?
- Which burs does she use for her preps? (Bur codes listed on Protrusive Dental Community: www.facebook.com/groups/protrusive/ )
- What prep protocols does she use? What kind of stents?
- How do you communicate shade with lab and the patient?
- Does Manrina follow an ‘Occlusal Philosophy’ to ensure (para)functional longevity of her veneers?
- How do you manage patients with ultra-high expectations?
