Through his passion for providing the most natural – looking and life-like restorations possible, he invented his own revolutionary shade guide system in 2009 to help dental professionals everywhere who struggle with shade matching and color.

It is a world-wide best seller.
His lectures have been presented both nationally and internationally, creating world-wide sales for his shade system and his various books, including Anatomy from Nature, Esthetic Guide Book and Smile Selection Plus CS3 Clinical Cases.
