Led by Zelko Relic, EVP and CTO of Align Technology, the session highlights how digital platforms such as Invisalign, iTero, and exocad are revolutionizing dental practices, patient experiences, and treatment outcomes.
The presentation begins by outlining the benefits of digital dentistry for doctors and patients, including enhanced practice efficiency, elevated patient experiences, and exceptional treatment results. It introduces the Align Digital Platform, which seamlessly connects consumers, doctors, and dental labs, supporting every stage of the dental workflow: from diagnosis and planning to treatment, monitoring, and retention.
A significant focus is placed on the iTero Lumina™ intraoral scanner, which offers a larger field of view, faster scanning, and superior clinical accuracy compared to competitors. The session details how this technology streamlines oral health consultations, supports AI-powered diagnostics, and integrates with 3D printing and CAD/CAM workflows for restorative dentistry.
The webinar also covers the importance of comprehensive dentistry, advocating for tooth alignment as a foundation for minimally invasive restorations and long-term oral health. Real patient cases demonstrate how digital planning and alignment can preserve natural tooth structure, enhance esthetics, and facilitate optimal implant placement.
Finally, the session discusses the future of dentistry, including 3D digital twins, face capture, and simulation technologies, all aimed at empowering clinicians, improving patient outcomes, and making comprehensive digital dentistry the new standard of care." (less) string(1821)
