3D Printing Party!

23rd and 24th March - London

Dental 3D Printing Party with August de Oliveira

3D printing is the hottest thing now in technology in general and is taking over dentistry. Intra Oral scanners have been around for a while, but only recently have 3D printers become affordable and accurate enough for dentistry. In Office Dental 3D printers can range in price from $220 to $25,000 and have resolutions ranging from 300 to 20 microns.

But which do you choose? What types of resins can be used in dentistry? How can I make my own aligners, surgical guides, temporaries and models?

In this one of a kind, hands on course, Doctors
and their team will get two days of hands on
training using 3 different kinds of 3D printers,
with the objective of giving them the knowledge
they need to purchase the right printer and
implement it in their practices. Printers will range
from FDM (low cost usually just for Implant
Surgical Guides), SLA (Form 2, good for ortho aligner models and guides), and DLP (Good for guides, aligner models, night guards, temporaries and dies). Students will get to use free software, such as Meshmixer, to prepare models to be printed, to fabricate temporaries, minor ortho, and wax ups.

We will go over, paid orthodontic services that allow you to deliver aligner therapy to your patients for under $200 a case with two refinements! Doctors and their team will get a chance to load, maintain and use up to 5 different printers, and use various vacuforming machines and make aligners.
