About this Event
Course Description
This course is a practical, workflow-focused course designed to help dental professionals confidently implement intraoral scanning (IOS) and seamlessly integrate clear aligner therapy into everyday practice.
We will explore best practices for intraoral scanning, digital case submission, and lab collaboration while demystifying the clear aligner process from patient selection to delivery and follow-up. Participants will gain real-world insights into how IOS enhances diagnostic accuracy, improves communication, reduces remakes, and supports predictable outcomes. Emphasis is placed on practical application, team adoption, and workflow optimization to ensure digital tools translate into measurable practice growth and improved patient care.
2 CE Credits | 5:30–8:30 PM
