EVENT SUMMARY

If you are considering investing in a single technology for your practice, what would you do next? What technology would have the most tangible impact on your ROI and patient care, and rejuvenate your passion for dentistry?

What's the perfect fit? Confirm the advantages of combining different technologies in a dental practice to enhance quality of care, advance smarter workflow and live up to your latest standard. 

We are living in an extremely exciting time of medical advancements. We live in a world of increasing possibilities and unlimited opportunity. But, we are torn between the limits of old and the demanding new future. Between the safety and certainty of yesterday, and the anxiety and possibility of tomorrow. We are advancing at exponential speed which requires that we pay attention and keep up, more than ever. 

We need perspective and foresight 

in deciding our next move, 

to reach the next level,

of possibility.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

A one day journey to the rest of your life.

SciVision is consulting with various successful dental practitioners, and based on their journeys, circumstances and experience, we have invited three of them to share their advice in hindsight. These three general dentists practice in different types of practices, such as medical aid pricing and private practice pricing, small-town practice vs. big city.  They share their experiences before and after their introduction of advanced technologies such as CBCT, Microscopes, Intraoral Scanning and Lasers. And now that they have these, what has it done for their dental offering? With that knowledge, would they do it again? If yes, what would they do first?

A hands-on session of each technology will teach important skills training in the various technologies in order to fast-track the learning curve in each.

Very important, they will share how to step up an advancing practice to meet technology investment demand, how to charge accordingly and how to communicate the benefits and possibilities to patients and team.

FOR DENTISTS WHO SEEK EXTRAORDINARY

Almost everything starts with VISION. The underestimated role of magnification and the hidden benefits it brings, is a life changer for the treating clinician.

From 2D to 3D, CBCT in every day practice. Some excellent clinical application, clinical cases and intro to CBCT technology for the keen observer.

The aim you need to hit your mark, LASERS. Cleaning canals where no instrument or irrigation can go. From less invasiveness to uneventful healing in a nutshell. What can we do with our lasers and why?

Finally, Intraoral Scanning and 3D Printing. Next level in improving workflow and time-saving tips and tricks. How does this work in a practical application team approach? Sharing clinical experience and advice on the available hardware.
