Course Overview

Learn a structured Exocad workflow for planning and designing implant-supported full-arch hybrid restorations.

This hands-on course focuses on the relationship between the clinical records, implant positions, prosthetic space, tooth arrangement, smile design and the final hybrid restoration. Participants will learn how to organize the available information, identify potential design challenges and build a full-arch design that respects the approved restorative plan.

The course is designed to help dental professionals approach complex full-arch cases with greater organization, confidence and predictability.

What You Will Learn

By the end of the course, participants should be able to:

• Review the records required to begin a full-arch hybrid design.

• Set up and organize a full-arch case correctly in Exocad.

• Evaluate restorative space, implant position and screw-access location.

• Integrate clinical photographs into the digital smile-design process.

• Establish tooth position, midline, smile arc and overall tooth proportions.

• Develop a functional and esthetic full-arch tooth arrangement.

• Design the tooth-to-gingiva transition and prosthetic gingival contours.

• Evaluate the intaglio surface and restorative contours.

• Recognize design concerns that should be discussed with the restorative and surgical team.

• Prepare the design for review, approval and the next manufacturing stage.

• Communicate the digital plan clearly with the treatment team.

Bring Your Own Case

Bring one implant-supported full-arch hybrid case that you would like to work through during the hands-on session.

Complete digital files and clinical photographs must be submitted in advance. Our team will review the records before the course and let you know if anything else is required.

Cases may be in the planning, prototype or restorative-design stage.
