Prosthetic Dentistry in the Digital Era: How Technology Changed our Workflows
The evolution of prosthetic dentistry has been profoundly shaped by digital technologies, transforming traditional workflows into streamlined, highly predictable processes.
Intraoral scanning has replaced many conventional impression techniques, while digital design software enables virtual wax-ups, real-time modifications, and precise treatment planning. Computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems allow (chairside) fabrication of high-quality crowns, bridges, and implant prostheses. The recent implementation of artificial intelligence and cloud-based platforms improve collaboration and facilitate the process. In this webinar, we will demonstrate how these technologies can be used in different indications, from simple tooth-supported restorations to advanced esthetic cases and full-arch implant rehabilitation.
This course aims at teaching learners how to:
Identify and explain the key digital technologies—such as intraoral scanning, CAD/CAM systems, and AI platforms—that have transformed traditional prosthetic dentistry workflows.
Observe and understand how digital tools are applied in various clinical scenarios, including tooth-supported restorations, esthetic cases, and full-arch implant rehabilitation, to enhance treatment planning and execution.
