In this course, participants will learn CAD design for complete dentures within a digital workflow using the 3Shape Dental System. The focus will be on tooth selection on the patient, individual anterior tooth setup incorporating face scan data, and the application of the Candulor Denture Smile Library+.
In addition, the integration of digital facebows, a virtual patient, and the implementation of Gerber's functional occlusion concept – including centric and dynamic occlusion – are taught in a practical manner. Complementary knowledge in individual gingival design and finalization of the design will also be acquired.
