Full Arch Digital Implant Dentistry: Photogrammetry, Scan Bodies & Immediate Loading 3D Printed Designs

24 APRIL 2027 · THE MARKET CROSS, BURY ST EDMUNDS

Build a more complete understanding of the digital full-arch workflow - from capturing implant position to designing for immediate loading.

Full arch implant dentistry brings together multiple digital technologies, but predictability depends on understanding how those technologies connect.

This intensive hands on course explores the digital workflow behind full arch implant rehabilitation, with a particular focus on photogrammetry, implant scan bodies, digital data capture and immediate loading 3D printed designs.

Rather than looking at each technology in isolation, you'll work through how accurate implant position data, soft tissue information and restorative design come together to create a usable digital record and how that record progresses towards an immediate provisional restoration.

The goal is practical confidence: understanding what data you need, how to capture it and what happens to it next, so you can make more informed decisions throughout your own full arch cases.

What you'll learn

During the course, you will:

  • Understand the key stages of a fully digital full arch implant workflow.
  • Explore the role of photogrammetry in recording implant positions in full arch cases.
  • Understand how photogrammetry differs from conventional intraoral scanning and where each technology fits within the workflow.
  • Develop a clearer understanding of implant scan bodies, their geometry and the data they communicate.
  • Learn the importance of accurate implant position capture and how errors at this stage can affect the restorative workflow.
  • Understand how implant, soft tissue and reference data are brought together digitally.
  • Explore the records required when planning an immediate loading workflow.
  • Understand the digital design principles behind 3D printed immediate provisional restorations.
  • Follow the progression from clinical data capture through digital design and manufacture.
  • Learn how to assess the quality and completeness of your digital records before progressing a case.
  • Identify common points of failure and understand how a more structured workflow can improve predictability.

Course aims & objectives

The aim of this course is to give delegates a practical understanding of the technologies and records involved in modern digital full arch implant dentistry.

By the end of the day, you should understand how photogrammetry, intraoral scanning, implant scan bodies and digital restorative design interact within an immediate loading workflow.

The emphasis is on understanding the complete clinical to digital pathway, rather than learning individual pieces of technology without knowing how they affect the final outcome.

What you'll leave with

A clearer full arch workflow.
Understand the sequence of records and digital stages required to move a full arch case forward predictably.

A practical understanding of photogrammetry.
Know what it captures, why it is used and where it fits alongside intraoral scanning.

Greater confidence with implant scan bodies.
Understand their role in communicating implant position and why accurate capture matters.

A better understanding of immediate loading.
See how the digital records ultimately contribute to the design and manufacture of an immediate provisional restoration.

The ability to assess your data more critically.
Develop a better understanding of what constitutes a complete, usable digital record before progressing downstream.

Knowledge you can apply the next day.
Leave with a structured framework that can immediately inform how you approach, assess and communicate your own digital full arch cases.

Who is this course for?

This course is designed for implant dentists and clinicians involved in digital full arch rehabilitation who want to deepen their understanding of contemporary data acquisition and immediate loading workflows.

It is particularly suited to clinicians already working with intraoral scanning and implant dentistry who want greater confidence integrating photogrammetry, scan bodies and digitally designed immediate provisionals into their cases.
