Digital denture workflows are rapidly transforming the landscape of removable prosthodontics. You already know the value your intraoral scanner brings to crown and bridge, clear aligner therapy, and implant workflows—but are you fully leveraging it for complete dentures? By utilizing intraoral scanners and reference dentures, this lecture/workshop introduces a streamlined digital denture workflow that transforms intraoral scanning into a time-saving, communication-enhancing tool. Learn how digital integration strengthens collaboration with your lab technician, improves the patient experience, and increases clinical efficiency and predictability—all while maximizing the value of your existing technology.

Doctor’s tuition includes participation for up to two staff members to support clinical implementation, and attendees will receive 50% off their first AvaDent digital denture case.

After completing this hands-on workshop, participants will be able to:

• Identify the clinical steps involved in a digital workflow for complete dentures using intraoral scanning.
• Perform clinical record capture using intraoral scanners, apply the reference denture technique, and manage the biofunctional try-in in a digital denture workflow.
• Demonstrate how intraoral scanning improves communication with dental laboratories and patients.
• Assess the impact of implementing a digital denture workflow on clinical efficiency and predictability with scanning technology.

Welcome to the future of cosmetic dentistry—a place where guesswork is eliminated, confidence is amplified, and patients can see their future smile before a handpiece is ever lifted. This isn't just about CBCT. It's about a revolutionary workflow that fuses advanced diagnostics with powerful emotional engagement tools to transform how you plan, present, and perform cosmetic procedures.

In this immersive session, Dr. Todd Snyder shares how he uses CBCT imaging to uncover unseen pathology, TMJ dysfunction, and structural issues—and then pairs it with facial scanning and intraoral data to construct a lifelike 3D virtual patient. With this integrated digital model, you'll learn how to design, prototype, and deliver smile makeovers with unmatched precision, predictability, and profitability.

The real magic? These tools don’t just enhance clinical outcomes—they sell the vision of possibility. Learn how to go from diagnosis to digital design to final delivery.
