Digital Esthetic Dentistry Short Course

Introduction:

In the last two decades Prosthetic Dentistry has had a major shift toward using digital technologies including CAD/CAAM systems. These technologies have reduced the laboratory steps to the extent that one day prostheses are now feasible. Following this wave, different tooth-colored materials only used by CAD/CAM technology, are presented to dentistry to fabricate inlays, onlays, crowns and bridges. At the same time, it is now possible to design and fabricate partial or complete removable dentures with additive CAD/CAM technology. Digital technologies can routinely be used for treatment planning, surgical guide, abutment and prosthesis fabrication in implant dentistry.

So, for an up-to-date dentist the familiarity with digital dentistry is a must do. That’s why Prosthodontics Department of TUMS School of dentistry has planned a short course to share up dated different aspects of digital dentistry. We will be honored if you join us at this event.
