Instructors Vahit Topçu and Alihan Şahbaz shared their experiences with participants through the "Hybrid Prosthesis Design" and "IBAR Design" workshops. Common mistakes in 3D printer usage were discussed at the end of the training.
The training began with an emphasis on the effective use of hybrid prostheses in both full and partial tooth loss scenarios. It highlighted the significant role of hybrid prostheses, especially in cases of moderate to severe bone resorption, serious bone loss resulting from tumor resection, and scenarios requiring upper jaw lip support.
The content of the training covered how hybrid prostheses are designed and produced through digital dentistry programs. Practical information was shared with participants, underscoring the importance of digital technology in dental practice.
Instructor Vahit Topçu shared his extensive experience in hybrid prosthesis design with the participants, providing them with an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the topic during the Q&A session.
At the end of the training, participants had increased their knowledge of hybrid prosthesis design and were better prepared for practical applications.
IBAR Design - Instructor: Alihan Şahbaz
During the IBAR design session, a titanium bar was cut out from a previously designed hybrid prosthesis using the Blender for Dental program, making it ready for production. The steps of this design process were explained to participants in detail during the training. Instructor Alihan Şahbaz shared his knowledge and experience on the topic, guiding the participants through the process.
Participants learned IBAR design practically using the Blender for Dental program. They had the opportunity to experience similar works previously produced through user feedback.
At the end of the training, participants gained knowledge and experience in IBAR design, reaching a level where they could utilize this information in future applications.
Each training aimed to provide participants with information about industry innovations and develop skills that could be applied in practice. The "Hybrid Prosthesis Design" workshop expanded participants' perspectives by highlighting the latest developments in dentistry and the role of digital technology. The "IBAR Design" workshop provided practical experience in titanium bar cutting using the Blender for Dental program, demonstrating the integration of digital design into the production process. In both workshops, participants effectively shared knowledge and experiences through their active participation. As a result of the training, participants gained awareness of industry innovations and strengthened their skills for practical application. They reached a level where they could successfully utilize this acquired knowledge and experience in their future work.
