3D Printing and Digital Smile Design

Three-dimensional (3D) printing and Digital Smile Design (DSD) have revolutionized modern dentistry by enabling highly accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and customized restorative solutions. Digital workflows integrate intraoral scanning, facial analysis, computer-aided design, and additive manufacturing to create personalized dental restorations, surgical guides, orthodontic appliances, and implant-supported prostheses. These technologies improve communication between clinicians, laboratories, and patients while reducing treatment time, increasing precision, and enhancing esthetic outcomes. As digital technologies continue to evolve, 3D printing and smile design are becoming indispensable components of comprehensive dental care.

This scientific session provides an international forum for prosthodontists, orthodontists, implantologists, restorative dentists, researchers, laboratory technicians, and digital technology experts to discuss recent advancements in digital smile planning and additive manufacturing. Topics include virtual smile analysi, CAD/CAM s integration, facially driven treatment planning, customized prosthetics, surgical guide fabrication, digital workflows, esthetic rehabilitation, and future innovations in digital dentistry. Participants will gain valuable knowledge on emerging technologies that are redefining restorative dentistry and delivering highly personalized patient care.
