Master Digital Restorative & Aesthetic Dentistry

The Diploma in Digital Restorative & Aesthetic Dentistry is designed for dentists who want to confidently integrate modern digital restorative workflows into everyday practice.

Developed by the International Digital Dental Academy (IDDA), this flexible postgraduate programme combines structured online learning with practical clinical principles, helping you build confidence from digital smile planning and patient communication through to CAD design, material selection and restorative delivery.

Whether you're beginning your digital journey or looking to refine your restorative workflows, the programme provides practical, clinically focused education that can be applied immediately in practice.

What You'll Learn

Throughout six comprehensive modules you'll develop practical knowledge across the complete digital restorative workflow, including:

• Digital restorative principles
• Photography, smile planning and patient communication
• Tooth preparation and restorative materials
• CAD design for anterior and posterior restorations
• CAM workflows and 3D printing
• Finishing, staining, glazing and adhesive cementation

Every module has been designed to build upon the previous one, creating a structured learning pathway that develops both confidence and clinical competence.

Learn Around Your Practice

We understand that postgraduate education needs to fit around a busy clinical schedule.

That's why the Diploma has been developed as a flexible online programme that allows you to study wherever and whenever suits you.

You'll benefit from:

• 100% online lectures
• Self paced learning
• Optional hands on training
• International expert faculty
• Practical clinical demonstrations

Study at your own pace without compromising your clinical commitments.

Learn From Experienced Clinicians

Your teaching is delivered by internationally recognised clinicians who actively use digital restorative workflows in daily practice.

Rather than focusing purely on theory, the programme emphasises practical implementation, helping you understand how digital techniques can be integrated into real clinical workflows.

You'll learn directly from experienced educators with extensive expertise in restorative dentistry, digital workflows and contemporary treatment planning.

From Consultation to Final Restoration

Digital dentistry is about far more than software.

Throughout the programme you'll learn how each stage of the restorative workflow connects together, from the initial patient consultation and smile planning through to CAD design, material selection, manufacturing and final clinical delivery.

The emphasis is always on predictable, efficient and patient centred restorative workflows.
