From Scan to Smile. Delivering high-end chairside esthetic restoration in 1 hour

In the rapidly evolving field of dentistry, integrating digital technologies is transforming the planning, execution, and delivery of aesthetic restorations. The course "Digitally Driven Aesthetics: Mastering the Complete Digital Workflow" aims to equip dental professionals with the necessary skills to keep pace with these advancements.

Participants will explore the intricacies of digital workflows, beginning with digitally driven preparation for indirect aesthetic restorations that enhance precision and aesthetics. Key techniques covered will include Immediate Dentine Sealing (IDS) and effective bonding strategies that contribute to greater restoration longevity.

The course will delve into AquaCare, an innovative tool that supports minimally invasive treatment options while optimizing clinical workflows through digital intraoral scanning. A major focus will be on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in digital dentistry, highlighting how AI- powered software like Dentscape revolutionizes the restorative design process. This technology allows for personalized treatment by analyzing patient data and predicting clinical outcomes, ultimately improving patient care.

Led by Prof. Hatem, the course features step-by-step demonstrations on dental models to show real-time applications of the techniques taught. This culminates in a live surgical procedure, allowing participants to observe the practical use of digital workflows in action.

Additionally, the course will cover chair-side 3D printing, showcasing how on-demand manufacturing can enhance turnaround times and boost patient satisfaction. It will also address essential strategies for successful cementation, emphasizing material selection, bonding techniques, and effective solutions to common challenges.

By the conclusion of this course, attendees will have a comprehensive understanding of the complete digital workflow in aesthetic dentistry, enabling them to provide superior patient care through innovative methodologies and technologies. Participants are invited to enhance their practice and deliver exceptional aesthetic results.
