The course is aimed at practicing dentists (general practitioners and prosthetically oriented), as well as young colleagues who want to build a systematic foundation and achieve reliable clinical decisions. It is also suitable for more experienced clinicians who wish to optimize and implement the digital workflow protocol in their daily practice.
The entire course is organized into 6 consecutive modules, with each module being a self-contained training unit. The modules are arranged according to the logic of the real clinical protocol in fixed prosthetic dentistry – from start and planning, through precise execution, to finalization and stabilization of the result. Each day combines structured theory, demonstrations and practical guidance/ algorithms that can be applied immediately in clinical practice.
Main objectives of the training:
The main goal of this course is to provide participants with a comprehensive, predictable and reproducible clinical protocol in fixed prosthetic dentistry - from diagnosis and planning, through precise preparation, impression-taking and fabrication of temporary restorations, to secure cementation and functional stability through the integration of analog and digital approaches.
Upon completion of the modular course, participants will acquire structured clinical thinking and planning of prosthetic treatment with clear steps.
