USA - Upcoming Courses

Learning Objectives:

• Develop a systematic diagnostic and treatment planning approach that begins with the end result in mind that you can use for every case, every time.
• Learn to digitally design an ideal, patient specific dentition and translate that into beautiful wax-ups and immediate load prosthetics
• Learn what data you must obtain along with how to integrate and store that data.
• Discuss the value of 2D simulations and facial scans in the treatment planning process
• Master free software (Blue Sky Plan and Meshmixer) that can be used for designing guides and prosthetics entirely in-house
• Understand the various full arch prosthetic options from fixed crown and bridge (FP1) to fixed hybrids and removable overdentures and how the approach will differ for each.
• Explore guided kits and surgical approaches that will help you perform efficient and minimally traumatic surgeries
• Learn when bone reduction is indicated and the various options for bone reduction guides.
• Learn staged approaches using serial extractions.
• Understand the various options for bone segmentation.
• Learn how to make complex full arch guides using both a swappable and a stackable approach
• Review options for fabricating guides through printing and milling as well as when it makes sense to outsource the fabrication.
• Gain an understanding of immediate load protocols and ways to reduce risks and complications.
• Hands-on exercises designing multiple types of full arch guides including soft tissue-supported, bone-supported, and stackable guides
• Much more…

This On Demand course was created from a recording of a recent hands-on course. The benefit of a recorded live course over a stand-along recording is that the viewer benefits from the live discussions that always occur in a classroom setting.

In this course, we will be covering the basics of Clear Aligner Case Design and Fabrication. We will start from the basics of diagnostics, case selection, case workup, and how to implement model printing and tray fabrication in-office. Attendees will have the tools and strategies to implement the protocols the day they return to their practices. We will show you how to setup your cases as efficiently as possible and help you to delegate as much as possible. This course will not be for the faint of heart. We will be working hard and not holding back.

This On Demand course was created from a recording of a recent hands-on course. The benefit of a recorded live course over a stand-along recording is that the viewer benefits from the live discussions that always occur in a classroom setting.

In this course, we will be covering the basics of Guided Surgery including some more advanced strategies for full arch guides (even a BONUS peek into bone reduction guides).

Attendees will have the tools and strategies to implement both protocols the day they return to their practices.

We will show you how to design surgical guides in just minutes and help you to delegate as much as possible.

In this course, students will learn how to use Blue Sky Plan as well as basic ways to implement 3D printing in their offices.
A one hour long power point lecture is given by Dr. Russell Schafer that shows how he does design in his office as well as he does the basics of 3d printing.

After this, Dr. Schafer has 20 separate modules that cover:
1) How to build, articulate, and manipulate models in Blue Sky Plan
2) How to design crowns and bridges using both AI and Blue Sky Plan Libraries
3) How to design dentures and immediate dentures in Blue Sky Plan
4) How to create a surgical guide as well as how to create implant crowns with Blue Sky Plan.
Each individual module is between 15 to 90 minutes long depending on the topic and also has the corresponding STL files to follow along with Dr. Schafer.

Learn a methodical and repeatable approach to CBCT-based tx planning that will give you confidence in the operatory. This course is a required pre-requisite for those who are enrolling in the Entry Point™ live patient treatment sessions.

While this course is a critical part of the Entry Point™ continuum, it can also be taken as a standalone course. It is ideally suited for those who are already trained in implantology, but who do not yet feel comfortable with CBCT scanning and DICOM manipulation.

NOTE: First Hour of the course is offered for free: https://koernercenter.com/product/ep-txplanning-intro/

This 90-minute online course is designed to turn the normally frustrating and unpredictable process of denture creation into a simple, streamlined, and more profitable aspect of your practice, all while delivering better outcomes for your patients. Also Dr. Schafer includes the files to 3d Print your own denture trays to do your own 3 Step dentures as well as has a video to show how to use Blue Sky Plan to design dentures.

This is an edited down recording of a live course held in my office and streamed online. This allows the viewer to review all the same content delivered in the course, at his or her leisure.
