Intraoral Scanning in Everyday Dentistry: Faster, Smarter, More Predictable
Wednesday, June 17, 2026 | 5pmPST – 2 Hour Live Webinar
Intraoral scanning has transformed from an emerging technology into an essential component of modern dental practice. Today’s scanners do far more than replace traditional impressions. They improve communication, streamline workflows, enhance patient experience, and serve as the foundation for a growing digital ecosystem in dentistry.
This course will provide a practical, clinician-focused overview of intraoral scanning and its role in restorative, orthodontic, implant, and digital workflows. Participants will review the fundamentals of scan acquisition, techniques for improving accuracy and efficiency, and strategies for avoiding common clinical errors. The course will also examine how digital impressions integrate with CAD/CAM systems, 3D printing, and laboratory communication to improve predictability and productivity in clinical practice.
Designed for both new and experienced users, this program will help clinicians better understand how intraoral scanning technology can enhance clinical outcomes and support the transition to digital dentistry.
