While many dental practices have not yet embraced new technology, it’s no secret that dentistry is trending towards digital when it comes to more efficient workflows and treatment for patients. For practitioners considering an easy, seamless way to make the transition, intraoral scanning is often a great place to start. In this CE webinar, join Dr. Tony Mennito, a general practitioner, educator, international lecturer and published author, for a look at his journey with intraoral scanning and how it has transformed the way he performs in general practice. Dr. Mennito will focus on three intraoral scanning-based workflows — digital wax-ups, implant planning and clear aligner and occlusal splint therapy — and discuss how intraoral scanning aided in the diagnostics and treatment planning process.

After completing this CE webinar, participants will be able to:
• Understand the basics of intraoral scanning, including the advantages of digital impressions over conventional, physical impressions
• Identify some of the major intraoral scanner brands on the market today — Dentsply Sirona, Planmeca, 3Shape, Medit and DEXIS — as well as the defining characteristics of each
• Explore other applications typical to intraoral scanning, including patient monitoring, simulated smile design and fabricating restorations   ( disclaimer, bio and commercial disclosure )
