Scanning for Partially and Fully Edentulous Workflows: Application with the Straumann SIRIOS™ X3

COURSE OVERVIEW

This course provides intermediate instruction in digital scanning protocols for partially and fully edentulous implant workflows. Participants will review key considerations for capturing accurate digital impressions in cases with limited or absent dentition, with emphasis on scan strategy, anatomical landmark identification and workflow design.

The program highlights manufacturer‑recommended (OEM) digital workflows and focuses on techniques that support effective data acquisition and communication with the dental laboratory. Participants will also learn how to develop detailed digital prescriptions and case instructions to improve laboratory outcomes designed to strengthen clinician confidence in managing edentulous scanning cases and supporting predictable restorative results.
