Dear BDDS members!
Join us on our Semi-Annual event to meet the EC members, connect with your colleagues while enjoying the dinner at Empire!
Dinner will be served at 6:00pm and lecture will start at 7:30pm!
Dr. Papaspyridakos will give a lecture on Terminal Dentition: Digital Surgical and Prosthetic Protocols for Full- Arch Implant Rehabilitation.
The applications of digital technology in Implant Dentistry include imaging, digital planning, template-guided implant placement, digital impressions with intraoral scanners and CAD/CAM prostheses. Digital planning software for treatment planning, digital impressions with intraoral scanners (IOS) and CAD/CAM production with 3-D printers and milling units are currently integrated together enhancing treatment workflow. This presentation will address the current scientific status and the clinical protocols for complete digital workflow in full-arch fixed implant rehabilitation for terminal dentition patients.
