The phone is now the iPhone, the car is learning to drive itself and google home can turn your music on, or lights off, just by verbally requesting it.
Dentistry is no different. PVS impressions are being overtaken by Intraoral scanners, Technicians porcelain stacking skills by CADCAM and we can print our models on demand.
Dr Chee Chang is at the forefront of this rapidly evolving front of dentistry, starting with CADCAM in 2010 as a freshly graduated Prosthodontist. Our conversation ranges from DJing to free CADCAM programs and gives suggestions on how to take your first steps into digital dentistry, even if you don’t have all the toys and programs in your office.
It was great fun chatting with Chee and I hope you all enjoy the episode as much as I did (possibly my favourite topic)!
