Everyday Digital Dentistry: 
Digital Workflows for Implants, Dentures and Partials

COURSE OVERVIEW

Contemporary IOS technology empowers clinicians to integrate digital workflows throughout restorative dentistry. This course explores clinical and laboratory protocols for fabricating implant crowns, complete dentures and removable partial dentures using intraoral scanning. Participants will learn strategies to improve efficiency, reduce chair time and achieve predictable restorative outcomes, including workflows that support complete and removable prosthesis delivery in as few as two to three appointments. The course also highlights best practices for communication between clinicians and laboratory teams to foster successful treatment outcomes.
