Throughout the years, restorative trends and techniques have come and gone. Some material developments have transformed the face of aesthetic dentistry, while other initial concepts have phased out and died. Yet the concept of digital dentistry is one that started out small, and has progressively increased in momentum until its boundaries appear to have become endless.

As dentistry evolves into the digital world, the successful incorporation of computerization and new technology will continue to provide more efficient methods of communication and fabrication while at the same time retaining the individual creativity and artistry of the skilled dental technician, and the utilization of new technology will enhanced the close cooperation and working relationship of the dentist/technician team.

Symbiosis is the interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association, typically to the advantage of both. This definition also applies to the relationship between the dental ceramist, the computer and the ceramic brush. These exciting courses will offer participants a unique insight into the replication of natural esthetics while focusing on proper function and occlusal harmony using CAD-CAM technology. Participants will learn a format for achieving that often-elusive goal of pleasing the patient, dentist, and ceramist with creative ceramic artistry and predictable restorative dentistry.

We believe that changing the way you think is the first step toward realizing successful, personal, and professional growth. To that end, we offer a comprehensive curriculum of courses designed to not only teach technical-clinical excellence, but to stimulate you intellectually, motivate, and help you build a foundation for continual success.

All courses will incorporate lecture, computer design, and hands-on fabrication phases.
