A Practical Introduction to CAD/CAM Technology: One Visit Restorative Flow (Hands-On Course)

Boston, MA •Saturday, March 18, 2017 • 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.

CAD/CAM technology is rapidly ushering its way into everyday dental practice as price points become affordable. Scanning, Designing and Milling, whether together or individually, have changed the landscape of Modern Dental practice. Digital workflow allows users to capture impressions without the mess of elastomeric materials. Today’s dentists can design restorations easily with intuitive software and rapidly mill ceramics for delivery in one appointment.

The economics of single visit dentistry will be reviewed along with choices for laboratory collaboration. Staining, glazing and other finishing and cementing options will be discussed for interested participants. The world of one visit dentistry is upon us and can be affordable for most clinicians!
