Discover courses and schools for dental technicians and dentists in the heart of the Italian Alps at the Zirkonzahn School.
‘Die Zirkonzahn Schule’ (the Zirkonzahn School) is a training programme that combines dental technical teaching with a school of life and culture.
The Zirkonzahn School offers both courses and schools for all walks of life: it aims to supporting both young and expert dental technicians in making personal and professional growth, by means of a diligent and complete education which focuses on craftsmanship techniques and on digital technology.
The educational programme has been conceived thoroughly by the creative mind of Enrico Steger, MDT, pioneer of dental technology and founder of the worldwide, dental technical company Zirkonzahn (South Tyrol, Italy). According to Steger’s belief that ‘learning means repeating’, excellent results only arise from ongoing and self-motivated pursuit of improvements as well as from a constant exercise.
All Zirkonzahn Schools take place in the meadows of the company’s homeland, South Tyrol, embraced by the magnificent Alps, and all classes are held by expert dental technicians trained in-house. The six schools included in the programme have been conceived considering the specific and differentiated targets’ needs.
They last from five days to several months and, in some cases, they are run internationally:
Military School
The most traditional five-day training offered to the young, focused on the concept of discipline and for this reason, characterised by a military orientation: after getting up early, morning exercises and working tasks are performed following a strict and well-planned schedule with a diligent attitude. In the evening, there is still no time for rest: adventurous dental, technical, and personal challenges still await the young participants.
Ranger School
In a period of three to six months, enthusiastic, committed and ambitious young technicians can broaden their knowledge on digital workflow, aesthetic design and latest innovative dental solutions.
But the Ranger School is not only homework and workshops: alongside the strict schedule, adventurous and cultural activities await the students, bringing the Rangers face to face with their own limits. Hence, ‘climb the mountain’ is the Ranger School’s motto!
Forest School
Located in a rustic farmhouse, the Forest School welcomes experienced dental technicians for five days. In close contact with nature and tradition – without smartphones, radio or television – participants look after themselves, hike, experience the community, and concentrate on prosthetics and digital workflow, putting into practice all content learnt.
Safari School
A journey through our homeland and an immersion in the handicraft work: this is what awaits experienced dental technicians for five days. In a spartan and extravagant accommodation, they will engage in morning sports, different group activities and innovative patient diagnostic approaches as well as layering techniques.
Mountain Monastery
The mystical atmosphere of the Mountain Monastery unlocks people’s hidden talents, bringing out the best. In the contemplative silence, thoughts are the only distraction granted, providing mental access to unusual solutions and bringing to light what a person really wants. During seven days of training, the seven participants not only refine professional skills, but also deal with the psychological factors that lead people to success.
Heldencampus
A special training conceived and tailor-made for the excellences of dental technology. Participants can take part in the Heldencampus only upon personal invitation by Mr Enrico Steger.
Designed as a minimal place to maintain a high level of concentration, this five-day training is mostly dedicated to the concept of refinement. The main topics discussed during the course are: precision, attention to details, aesthetic appearance, cleanliness, work presentation and packaging, tool maintenance, and workflow.
Never stop learning! Master innovative techniques and new technologies by attending our Schools in the Aurina Valley (Italy) or by taking part in one of the courses scheduled in our Education Centers in South Tyrol and worldwide.
