Embracing Digital Dentistry

Dental professionals who will be leaders in years to come require an education that encompasses the techniques and technology that are on the verge of transforming the field. Enter the ever-growing advances in digital dentistry, and to that end, the School of Dental Medicine’s Digital Innovation Initiative, aimed at fully integrating the latest in digital dental technologies at almost every stage of education and patient care.

Two gleaming new spaces in the lower level of the school’s Thomas Evans Building opened earlier this year and mark an evolution toward embracing digital dentistry and workflow across the school. With state-of-the-art equipment, the new Digital Design and Milling Center and the Center for Virtual Treatment Planning, together with new staff and curriculum changes, open up possibilities for training students, conducting research and continuing education, and delivering seamless and cutting-edge patient care.
