What Matisse
Users say
"Over the years I’ve had varying success using programs for my custom shade cases. Matisse has been, by far, the most complete approach/system that I’ve used. I have yet to have a case not to be accepted on the first try. On top of that, the support and vast knowledge that Marat openly shares is beyond compare."
Richard G Knecht CTD, USA
"I attended the first Live Patient Course in Lisbon ever using the Matisse software. That’s when the magic happens! The expertise of Marat and his genius mind comes in perfect and sophisticated results. Matisse software is very easy to use, it guides you step by step to the perfect matching result. Marat, thank you for making our work much easier and more precise."
Raad Al Rubaiee, The Netherlands
"I’ve been learning dental ceramics for more than 10 years. Now that I know Matisse, in my first attempt I reach an incredible level of reproduction. Matisse is an incredible work tool, totally recommended, saves us a lot of time and teaches to better understand the concept of color."
Jean Paul Gonzales, Colombia
"Working with matisse has been an amazing experience, since I started using the software shade matching became easier and predictable reducing the number of remakes due to shade problems.
The software is user-friendly giving us all the information needed from the correct framework, the perfect dentine recipes to the skin enamel, freeing the dental technician to spend his time on the layering and shaping."Hugo Sousa. United Kingdom
"It’s really great how easy Matisse is to work with. I never have any problem at all. My new protocol for the shade matching is so much faster and easier to work with than my old one. It used to take me more time to get the right shade and sometimes I needed to see the patient to modify my cases.
Now, it’s almost like having a patient right here with me and I can finish all of my cases without seeing them and without a try-in appointment. It’s extremely amazing and simple at the same time. Thanks Marat and thanks to the whole team!"Bruno Di Gregorio, Australia
"A year has passed since I’ve been using Matisse and I can say that the software works. Before, I had to correct my single central cases like 12 times! Caesar's phrase: ”I came, I saw, I won” can be attributed to Matisse. I bought a subscription immediately for a whole year, and now I will take it again since I was NOT disappointed in it, but on the contrary gave me strength and confidence. I publish all my work on Instagram. Marat, thanks for this wonderful tool !!!"
