Level 2- Orlando – May 12-13

Objectives:

1. To understand the additional functionality of the digital scanner beyond simple scanning and provide insight into the procedures that can be incorporated into a practice by diving into the expanded functionality.
2. To understand the basics of moving to an expanded or full digital workflow with the incorporation of in-house design and/or 3DPrinting or milling.

Teaching Methods:

Lecture instruction, guided self-scanning and design applications, and guided computer instruction to send models to printer

DAY 1 Morning Session:

• Fundamentals of digital impressions
• Learning the advantages of digital impressions over analog procedures, functioning independently of time and sequence and taking advantage of editable and additive features of intra-oral scans

• Master single-unit impressions, complex cases and introduction to staging full arch cases
• Managing errors that arise in imaging
• Understand how to quickly capture and accurately render full arch cases
• How and what to delegate to team members

Full arch scans for aligners and other appliance can be tedious and tricky with many intra-oral scanners. With sound principles and easy tutorials, you can image a full arch in very little time. The reliability map, unique to the Medit scanner, helps you stay on track and avoid both model distortion and inaccuracies.

Afternoon Session:

• Digital implant restorations
• Master the artificial intelligence implant suprastructure identification system to manage direct abutments and scanbodies
• Design single units, copy cases, and custom abutments from scanbodies

The following videos demonstrate how the Medit scanner uses artificial intelligence to readily identify a dental implant scanbody, a direct abutment, or even an impression abutment.  Even more impressive, you can import your own library of implant components or design and create your own scanbody.  This automatic identification of implant suprasctructures saves dozens of steps, whether you wish to fabricate restorations in the office or send it to the lab.

Medit’s artificial intelligence implant identification system spots a titanium scanbody on a freshly uncovered biomax implant. It didn’t matter how bloody the field was. The scanner readily identified the suprastructure, which is then transferred to the cad software (where the implant location and timing is correctly displayed) and the design of the custom abutment begins. This process is much more efficient and reduces potential errors. Another amazing feature is that the software can recognize impression abutment, tibases, and lots of other supra structures.
