Intra-Oral Scanning Seminars
As our industry continues to dynamically and often times radically evolve, its digitization has seen computer-aided design and manufacture begin to leave its mark in laboratory environments.
Now intra-oral scanning is set to revolutionize clinical practice by improving the accuracy and efficiency of impression-taking.
With access to an increasing number of material advancements only available through digital workflows, digital impression systems are readily becoming relied upon by both dentists and orthodontists alike who pride themselves on continually exceeding their patients’ treatment expectations.
Our seminars showcase
- Cadent’s iTero
- Sirona’s CEREC AC Connect
- 3Shape’s TRIOS
and are a must for dentists wishing to incorporate the latest, highest quality impression-taking techniques in their daily practice, whether it be for crown and bridgework or Invisalign treatment.
