CCPM 551/552 (Sec 3) CAD/CAM Clerkship I and II
During this clerkship, students will be introduced to a short history of CAD/CAM dentistry, review the benefits and disadvantages of the technology, and learn imaging skills and the design software. Imaging skills and design capabilities will be taught on typodonts and then applied to actual patients in the clinic. Various dental materials for CAD/CAM will be discussed, and a clinic will be held on custom ceramic staining and glazing. More advanced CAD/CAM techniques, such as quadrant restoration, fixed partial dentures and implant crown fabrication will be practiced as the students advance through the year.
