3Shape Practical Guide for Prosthodontists and Technicians

Course Overview

This intensive, video-based training program is built for prosthodontists and dental technicians who want to bring their digital workflow up to date using 3Shape Dental System software. Rather than treating digital dentistry as a set of abstract concepts, the course walks through the software chair-side and lab-side, showing how each function translates into a finished restoration.

The focus throughout is practical: how to plan a case digitally, communicate the proposed outcome to a patient, and carry that plan through to a manufactured prosthesis without losing precision along the way. Both fixed and removable workflows are addressed, giving the course relevance across a range of daily prosthodontic and lab scenarios.

By the end, participants should be comfortable using 3Shape's design tools not just to produce restorations, but to make a patient-facing case for treatment before any drilling or milling begins.
