Step-by-Step Digital Dentures For the Dentist and Technician – Scanners, Software, Lab Techniques, and More! (CME VIDEOS)

 

Are you confused by Digital Dentures? Are you a laboratory technician or dental clinician interested in getting into digital technology for full-arch removable restorations? Have you talked to sales reps for 3D printing companies and frustrated by how much it costs to get into printing in your own practice/lab?

This exciting course covers amazing technology and systems you, your assistants, and your laboratory needs to know about 3D printing and will answer your digital questions and address your digital concerns! We cover the basics all the way up to the advanced level methods of using intraoral and optical scanning techniques, clinical and laboratory workflows, 3D printing techniques, and multiple methods for making digital dentures. Also included is up to 23 hours of continuing education credits provided by UNLV School of Dental Medicine.

This course utilizes learning skills and educational content that is 10% projection slides and 90% video-based education. We emphasize simulated “LIVE” video-based techniques to demonstrate the use of scanners, printers, software, and clinical demonstration. You will be provided with files STL files of demonstrated cases for you to follow along.

To receive the best education possible, this course is broken down into 5 sections:

Section I: Fundamentals of 3D Dentistry & Optical Scanning

Covering the basics of digital dentistry, how to incorporate affordable intraoral scanning techniques and a review of multiple scanners available on the market.

Topics include:

  • Historical Overview of 3D Dentistry
  • A Review of Scanners on the Market
  • Cost Analysis
  • Accuracy of Scanners
  • Scanning Workflows
  • Strategies for Implementing Intraoral Scanning into Clinical Practice
  • Clinical Examples Using Scanners

Section II: Getting Started with Digital Dentures

This section focuses on the fundamentals and background of digital denture technology and techniques, multiple methods of construction of digital dentures, software options, and the essentials of working with digital files for dentures from the clinical and laboratory perspective.

Topics include:

  • Differences Between Digital and Conventional Dentures
  • Software Choices for Digital Dentures Pros and Cons: Exocad, 3Shape, Blue Sky Bio, Dental Wings
  • Working with Pink GUM tissues and Stains & Glazes
  • Downloading and installing FREE Software for Use with Digital Dentures
