Is this for me?
This PDF is for dental professionals involved in implant dentistry, such as surgeons, lab techs, practice managers, and educators exploring digital/3D printing tech for surgical guide fabrication and guided implant surgery.
But I can just send it to a lab...
While sending surgical guides to an external dental lab is an option, having an in-clinic 3D printing system offers several advantages:
- Greater control over the entire process, from design to manufacturing
- Faster turnaround times
- Ability to make adjustments or reprints on-site if needed
- Potential cost savings by reducing lab fees over time
- Convenience for same-day dentistry patients
Knowing the workflows unlocks the ability to implement these techniques to your practice and increase your efficiency - which leads to treating more patients, having more precise outcomes and feeling confident in your implantology.
Why do I need it?
Having this comprehensive PDF handbook allows you to optimize digital dental surgical guide production and leverage the precision and efficiency gains of guided implant surgeries.

Definitely put me into shape straight away
It tremendously helped, especially for individuals like me who did not have access to digital dentistry back in Uni. When I became a trainee, I was told to just hop on it, and felt puzzled, the flow of the courses are perfect and definitely put me into shape straight away. Thank you Dr Alhassiny
