Course Description
The "Dental Digital Workflow" course offers a comprehensive two-day journey into the world of digital dentistry. Begin your mornings with a networking breakfast, followed by an immersive introduction to the digital transformation in dentistry. Discover the impact of digitization, delve into the specifics of 3D printing, and explore a full 3D printing workflow.
Day one focuses on the technical skills necessary for high-quality intraoral scanning and understanding 3D printing, including the mechanisms, materials, and basics vital to dental workflows. It culminates with the CAD design process before a well-deserved lunch break. In the afternoon, engage in hands-on appliance fabrication, including printing, washing, post-curing, finishing, and the critical final step of patient delivery. The day ends with a session to summarize and address any questions, ensuring a comprehensive wrap-up before departure.
Day two reinforces the knowledge with a recap of the previous day's insights and pushes further into crown fabrication. Covering both full contour and implant-supported crowns, the course provides an in-depth chairside workflow. After another brief break, you will continue with the detailed aspects of crown fabrication, including CAD design and the practical elements of printing, washing, and post-curing. After lunch, the focus shifts to the finishing touches and patient delivery/cementation of crowns, guaranteeing you leave with a skill set ready to implement in your practice. The course concludes with a final summary, a question-and-answer session, and the issuance of certification, signifying your readiness to embrace digital dentistry in your clinical practice.
