THE POWER OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

This course explores how Artificial Intelligence and digital technologies are revolutionizing modern dentistry. Attendees learn how to seamlessly integrate digital scanning, CAD/CAM systems, and 3D printing into their clinical workflow to streamline production and elevate patient care. Through clinical case examples, the program highlights material options and demonstrates how in-office digital solutions can enhance precision, efficiency, and outcomes—often within a single visit.
Learn:

• AI with a modern-day CAD/CAM system
• step-by-step digital workflow for in-office solutions
• how to easily design and produce a variety of chairside restorations potentially in one appointment

PETROS YUVANOGLU, DMDINTRAORAL PHOTOGRAMMETRY: A “PARADIGM SHIFT” IN DIGITAL SAME DAY IMPLANT DENTISTRY

The evolution of photogrammetry marks a pivotal shift toward a truly seamless digital implant prosthetic workflow. Historically, extraoral systems captured implant positions but lacked soft-tissue data, requiring separate scans. Today, intraoral photogrammetry integrates this process. Using a single scanner, it captures both precise 3D implant coordinates and surrounding anatomy. This breakthrough enables, passive fit to prevent biological and mechanical complications, partial and full arch applications for everyday restorations and cost-effective accessibility for modern practice.
Learn:

• the evolution of photogrammetry trace the shift from traditional, extraoral standalone devices to the modern, integrated intraoral photogrammetry systems currently transforming the industry
• to master the Integration of Hard and Soft Tissue Data Learn how new hardware and software allow a single intraoral scanner to simultaneously capture precise 3D implant positions and detailed surface topography
• to expand clinical applications to partial arch cases identify how the seamless stitching of scan data now makes photogrammetry a viable and accurate solution for smaller, more common partial restorations, not just full-arch cases
• to optimize practice efficiency and accessibility Discuss the economic advantages of intraoral systems and how adopting a unified digital workflow reduces chair time and equipment costs for the modern dental practice
