Getting started with intraoral scanning

This webinar is aimed at dentists who are considering taking their first step into the world of digital dentistry with an intraoral scanner.

Understanding the jargon around scanners and deciphering specifications will be dealt with to help attendees scrutinise and identify the right solution, and provider, for their practice. Mark will outline the benefits and various applications of intraoral scanning. He will take a deep dive into the features, tools and specifications of some of the more popular systems on the market today. A live demonstration of the long established 3Shape Trios and relative newcomer to the market, Shining 3D Aoralscan 3 will also be presented. For those looking beyond intraoral scanning, the next steps of 3D printing and milling and associated software will be discussed too. If you are thinking about introducing scanning, expanding your scanning capacity or looking to get a flavour for how else you can use your scanner, this webinar is a must watch.
