Surgical Guides: Basic Course for Confident Design from Scratch
Surgical Templates: Basic Course for Confident Modeling from Scratch
Course overview
The essential foundation for confidently modeling surgical templates from scratch!
In Petr Kozhevnikov’s course you will learn:
the basics of working in 3Diagnosys and PlastyCad
principles of working with full-protocol surgical kits
printers and scanners required for the workflow
basic protocols for modeling surgical templates.
The course is designed for dental technicians and doctors who want to independently manufacture surgical templates or improve the quality of their technician’s work.
