Hands-On Workshops

Prerequisites: None. Where do I start?

You've completed initial training and viewed the training videos on CDOCS.com. Now it's time to expand your CEREC knowledge and learn how to make better use of the CEREC technology and the latest software. This workshop is your first step to CEREC mastery.

Prerequisites: None. Recommended for all chair side assistants Where do I start?

The most efficient offices are the ones that use CEREC with a team approach. There is no better way take care of patients in a single visit than when the entire team is on board, all working together in harmony.

Prerequisites: None. Level 2 completion highly encouraged. Where do I start?

CEREC will produce highly esthetic implant restorations with optimized occlusion and contacts, whether you are treating a single tooth or complete quadrant. Fabricating chairside implant restorations opens an avenue to be more productive in one's office whether you are temporizing an implant with a custom healing abutment or provisional restoration or fabricating the final restoration. This workshop is designed to get users familiar with all aspects of restoring implants with the CEREC technology.

Prerequisites: None. Where do I start?

Many doctors don't realize the full potential of their CEREC technology because they don't use it to its full capacity. Some feel they can only use CEREC for posterior teeth, and consequently they lose out on the opportunities offered by anterior CAD/CAM dentistry. In fact, with CEREC you can achieve esthetic results equivalent to high quality labs.

Prerequisites: Level 4A Mastering Multiple Anterior and Esthetic Cases with CEREC. Level 2 CEREC Foundation - Rapid Integration Into Your Practice. Spear’s Facially Generated Treatment Planning workshop completion encouraged. Where do I start?

CEREC goes beyond just single-tooth dentistry. This workshop is a natural extension of the "Anterior Esthetics with CEREC" workshop where participants will learn techniques for comprehensive cases including: how to perform virtual wax-ups, basic fundamentals of smile design and how to stage full mouth cases.

Prerequisites: Previous level CEREC workshops highly recommended Where do I start?

CEREC software has become more advanced and when coupled with additional software versions, it opens a whole realm of possibilities for individual clinicians.
This workshop sets the foundation to execute more comprehensive digital workflows using a combination of the CEREC and inLab 19 CAD software. Attendees will learn how these softwares allow us to maximize control, efficiency and profitability of procedures such as dentures, and wax-ups like never before. Course attendees will also understand which procedures can be done exclusively in their office and learn very specific instructions on how to use a digital lab for more complex treatments. The workshop is hands-on, intensive and allows doctors to design, export and mill

Prerequisites: Where do I start?

Attendees will participate in an engaging and informative overview of orthodontics. We will revisit the salient aspects of orthodontic tooth movement, occlusion, diagnosis, and treatment planning as it pertains to the restorative dental practice and as taught in dental school. The course will also begin to introduce aligner therapy and the SureSmile® Aligner system

Prerequisites: Where do I start?

This advanced aligner workshop features education on clear aligners using the Suresmile system to tackle more difficult cases. The workshop will also discuss challenging clinical situations such as ankylosed teeth, attachments on crowns and veneers, dealing with endodontically treated teeth and more. The workshop will also address cases that need to be referred and how best to work with your specialist when a referral is warranted.

Prerequisites: Where do I start?

Each step of endodontically treating and restoring a tooth is connected. This course walks the participant through each step of performing root canal therapy chairside in the most efficient manner – with each step building on the success of the previous.

Prerequisites: Where do I start?

This course builds on Fundamentals of Endodontic Therapy workshop and extends your endodontic knowledge to the next level. With extensive hands-on exercises and using advanced diagnostic tools participants will be able to perform cases of increasing complexity such as complex root morphology, difficult to anesthetize cases and more.

Prerequisites: None. Where do I start?

This course will give you the experience to utilize the Sirona Cone Beam CT (Galileos or XG3D) for surgical planning of implants and may help you to understand the fundamentals of guided implant surgery. Intended for clinicians who are interested in, new to, or moderately experienced with implant therapy. This two-day lecture and hands on workshop will take you from A to Z in all aspects of guided-implant planning using the Galileos/XG3D and the CEREC, as well as provide a complete understanding of all the different...

Prerequisites: Fundamentals of Guided Implant Surgery Where do I start?

The second workshop in the CDOCS implant curriculum will build upon the knowledge learned in the Fundamentals of Surgical Guided Implant Surgery workshop. This second workshop in the series will focus on more advanced treatment planning of multiunit and complex implant cases. Participants will learn the different techniques for fabricating surgical guides. Hands on exercises include implant placement in pig jaws to simulate a live environment. This second workshop is designed to give the participant a broader and deeper foundation of implant knowledge including all of the armamentarium that is needed to facilitate implant placement by the clinician.

Prerequisites: CEREC and Cone Beam Integration in Surgical Implant Dentistry Where do I start?

You attended the first two implant workshops in the CDOCS implant series and learned all there is to learn on how to treatment plan and place implants and create surgical guides. The Hard and Soft Tissue Grafting course will allow you to take your education further and learn more advanced techniques such as grafting and soft tissue development.

Prerequisites: Fundamentals of Guided Implant Surgery

Hard and Soft Tissue Grafting in Digital Dental Implant Therapy Where do I start?

This 3-day workshop will take participants through the full digital workflow on how to treat a fully edentulous patient. Utilizing CEREC and cone beam, users will learn the tips and tricks for a systematic workflow for treatment planning, designing and executing full arch implant therapy for patients.

Prerequisites: Where do I start?

This workshop will focus on optimizing the esthetics for implants placed in the esthetic zone. We will discuss esthetic risk assessments, atraumatic extraction techniques to preserve bone, implant placement techniques to minimize tissue loss and more. Restorative topics such as proper abutment selection, material selection for optimal techniques will also be discussed.
