In this program, you will learn methods and strategies for engaging senior- and junior-level faculty in the learning process and implementation of digital dentistry. A teamwork approach is always a win–win situation for both generations of faculty and can bring a new sense of enjoyment and challenge to us as dental educators. Transparency Market Research estimates that the worldwide digital impression system market for dentistry will grow at an annual compound rate of 18.3% through 2025, thus illustrating future trends in dentistry and the importance of integration of digital dentistry into the curriculum.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn how senior and junior faculty and students can learn from each other to improve clinical skills and teaching styles.
- Describe how new technology can impact student education and patient care.
- Develop your own strategies for digital dentistry instruction and implementation.
