We will discuss the reasons we chose the current systems as well as provide interactive hands-on demonstrations of various high quality yet practical budget friendly options to fabricate prototype, provisional and permanent dental appliances in office. During this 7-hour program, the attendees will:
- Understand the interaction between scanning and design of appliances
- Understand the practicality and benefits of low-cost additive manufacturing (3D printing)
- Understand the role of subtractive manufacturing for permanent appliances and why it is still the future of most dental appliances
- Learnhowtoput it all together to create a digital system that is cost effective and platform independent yet scalable and future proof
