Dental implants can be life-changing for our patients, but, sadly, they are cost-prohibitive for many. They can also be very technically demanding for the dentist and involve significant overhead expenses. As a small-town dentist, I spent most of my career trying to figure out ways to make high-quality dentistry accessible to my patients while remaining profitable. In this course, I will teach how I utilize technology to minimize or eliminate my lab bills, get more consistent and predictable results, and deliver beautiful results to my patients in less chair time.
Learning Objectives:
Develop a system of treatment presentation that gets more patients to accept comprehensive treatment and allows staging of treatment over time.
Learn the basics of guided surgery and how it improves surgical outcomes in less time.
Explore the value of scanners, design software, mills and 3D printers, and determine if they’re right for your office.
Discuss creative ways of fabricating very affordable final restorations, from single crowns to full-arch hybrids and overdentures.
