Course Summary
Digital dentistry is changing the way the dental team interacts with one another and plans treatment. Incorporation of digital technology for restorative solutions can help deliver natural-looking, esthetic results for patients. Connectivity between current intraoral scanners allows the restorative doctor to take a digital impression, make any occlusal modifications chairside, print a provisional and send the file to the laboratory to design the definitive restoration. This program will review recent advances in digital technology; the increasing importance of the partnership between the dentist and the lab; the differences between various materials used; surgical planning software for implant placement and restoration; 3D printer options; and the many benefits available to the treatment team when using digital dentistry solutions.

• Understand how digital impressions can help create an accurate definitive restoration.
• Understand the materials and processes available for digital restorations.
