These lecture topics have included treatment planning, case selection, simple and complex surgical placement and restoration, advanced bone grafting and bone graft materials, use of Computed Tomography and surgical guides, hygienic maintenance, management of complications and failures.
Dr. Ferguson has been instrumental in bringing low-cost 3D printing technology to dentistry and developing digital workflows for implant placement, restorative dentistry and clear aligner orthodontic therapy. Dr. Ferguson has been instrumental in developing and implementing implant training programs and hands on bone grafting courses including Implant Educators Academy – a 6 month Implant Live Surgery Continuum at the University of FL and alsoat LSU which have been attended by thousands of dentists. He maintains a private practice with his wife Dr. Katherine Fergusonin Davie, FL emphasizing dental implants and implant repair where they use digital dentistry tools to scan, design and fabricate almost all appliances in house.
Course Objectives
During this one-day hands-on lecture, Dr. Ferguson will provide a profound understanding of 3D printing, covering various materials, 3D printers, and instructing on the most practical and predictable applications of printed appliances. Upon Completion of this course, the participant should understand the current applications for 3D printing in dentistry and specifically in a clinical dental practice.
3D printing is set to revolutionize how we practice dentistry. We will discuss the variety of dental applications including surgical guides, Bite splints and nightguards, prototypes, permanent restoration such as inlays, onlays and crowns, dentures…etc.
- Workflows for surgical guides including data sets required
- Workflows for printing temporaries – Shells and direct to preps
- Workflows for bite splints
- Workflows for dentures
- Workflows for clear aligners
- In office design or outsourced design
- Types of 3D printers including pricing and applications for each
- Live demonstrations of 3D printing and post processing
- Questions and answers
