DENTIST-LAB COMMUNICATION FOR OPTIMAL OUTCOMES
LECTURE
Esthetic dentistry requires an acute attention to detail and intentional planning. When the technician and dentist can collaborate effectively on these cases, the best outcomes are achieved. We will discuss our systems for communication from smile design through final restoration fabrication and how each step is important to producing an ideal outcome.
OBJECTIVES: At the completion of the course, participants will be able to:
-
Discuss data needed for esthetic planning between dentist and technician
Bio-mechanics, materials and preparation principles and clinical protocol
-
Introduce two-dimensional and three-dimensional planning tools for smile design
-
Digital workflows in every day practice for high quality and precise indirect posterior restorations
