Maximum Precision: The Benefit of Photogrammetry in Full Arch Implant Cases
Date: Thursday, March 20, 2025
Times: Registration: 6 PM – 6:30 PM and Presentation: 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM
Location: Inter-Chrome Dental Lab – 2117 Smith Ave., Suite A, Chesapeake, VA 23320
Obtaining an accurate representation of implant positioning is critical when fabricating a full arch prosthesis. Every step through the prosthetic process may lead to inherent error, resulting in an ill-fitting prosthesis. When a prosthesis exhibits passivity there is less strain and stress to the supporting implants. Though it is impossible to achieve total passivity, the goal is to reduce the marginal gap as much as possible. The use of photogrammetry has been proven to be more accurate than any other digital or conventional impression techniques.
After this presentation the attendee will…
– Understand the complete digital workflow in full arch cases
– Experience the speed and efficiency of the photogrammetry method.
– Review the inaccuracies of traditional intraoral scanning
– Follow a case through to the printed provisional, based on the scans.
– Use of fiduciary markers to obtain the scan.
– Existing denture can help maintain vertical.

Invisalign Smile Architect™ Workshop
Speaker: Dr. David Lopes
February 26, 2025 – Invisalign Smile Architect™ is a first of its kind software that supports simple to complex ortho-restorative treatment planning in a single platform when treating patients with Invisalign clear aligners. Through this workflow enhancement to the Align Digital Platform™, doctors will be able to plan anticipated restorative outcomes for patients who require restorative treatment after orthodontic treatment. As a result, patients can visualize the proposed treatment more easily, which in turn can inspire increased case acceptance. This study club will create awareness about efficient and accurate systems for the ortho-restorative Invisalign® treatment planning and effective patient communication methods to increase acceptances of proposed treatment.
After completion of this course, you will be able to:
– Distinguish how digital pre-restorative alignment setups may allow for more minimally invasive restorations.
– Illustrate the importance of facially driven treatment planning for ortho-restorative setups and it’s impact on treatment outcomes.
– Evaluate how this tool may enable doctors to simplify their approach to patient communications and create opportunities to improve case acceptance.

NOBEL ESTHETIC ALLIANCE PROGRAM
Past Event – Restorative Implant Dentistry- From Start to Finish
The Esthetic Alliance Program is designed to support dental clinicians & build their comfort level in restoring implants in their practice. Structured in 4 modules, or levels, from treating single posteriors to fully edentulous mandibles, you may begin the program at the comfort level that best suits you. The modules are set up in small groups to stimulate interactive learning and participants are encouraged to bring cases that they will restore in their practices. The sessions are spaced so technique and knowledge learned can be put into practice between sessions and before advancing to the next module.
