Digital Biomimetic Dentistry: Scanning, Design & Milling

Course description:
This hands-on course provides an in-depth exploration of digital workflows in biomimetic dentistry, focusing on intraoral scanning, restoration design, material selection, and in-office milling. Participants will gain practical experience using Amann Girrbach mills and Ceramill Mind software, mastering techniques for efficient and precise digital restorations. The curriculum covers scanning strategies, design principles, material selection, and advanced techniques to optimize fit, function, and esthetics. Hands-on exercises will guide participants through scanning, transferring to design software, designing restorations, and milling with recommended biomimetic materials. Through live demonstrations and case-based learning, attendees will refine their ability to seamlessly integrate CAD/CAM technology into clinical practice—elevating precision, efficiency, and ultimately achieving the highest-quality clinical outcomes.
