In this webinar, Dr Riolo dives into the digital revolution with intraoral scanning. The introduction of intraoral scanning in the orthodontic clinic has resulted in an inevitable transition from analog to digital orthodontic workflow. Dr Riolo discusses how digital planning and 3D printing can be employed to achieve both aesthetic and efficient orthodontic treatment using customized lingual orthodontic appliances and hybrid clear aligner treatment.
