Dentistry 4.0: The Digital Revolution of Artificial Intelligence, Mixed Reality and Robotics
The Complete Digital Ecosystem: 3D Printing, Chairside Manufacturing, and Holographic Surgery

What you will learn
From digital impression to in-office restoration
The transition from analog to digital dentistry is no longer an option, but a necessity for those seeking precision and predictability.
Simply owning digital devices is not enough: the true challenge lies in understanding the invisible limits of technology, such as stitching in complex impressions or congruence errors that can compromise a full-arch rehabilitation. This course was created to bridge the gap between owning a tool and mastering a workflow that guarantees excellence, transforming complex procedures into daily clinical standards.
Francesco Mangano will guide you through the entire digital ecosystem: from intraoral scanning to Artificial Intelligence applied to 3D diagnosis and automated segmentation, from Mixed Reality with holograms guiding implant placement to chairside workflows that allow you to produce definitive restorations with 3D printing directly in your office.
At the end of the course, you’ll be able to
- Capture passive full-arch impressions using continuous scan strategies and incremental libraries to eliminate mesh growth errors.
- Integrate AI into the diagnostic workflow, accelerating file segmentation and implant case planning.
- Operate with Mixed Reality, applying holograms as surgical guides in anterior and posterior regions.
- Select the correct manufacturing technology, choosing between milling and 3D printing based on material and clinical application.
- Manage 3D-printed definitive restorations by applying new protocols for hybrid composite materials directly chairside.
Topics covered
- Accuracy in complex impressions: analysis of stitching, drifting, and managing congruence between meshes and CAD libraries.
- AI in clinical practice: algorithms for 2D/3D diagnosis, tissue segmentation, and automated planning.
- Holographic Surgery and Mixed Reality: use of see-through headsets for dynamic navigation via interactive holograms.
- Additive and Subtractive Manufacturing: comparing milling vs. 3D printing for models, guides, and definitive restorations in zirconia or hybrid composite.
- Chairside Protocols: in-house production of definitive prosthetics.

FAQ
Before you enroll
How long can I watch the lessons?
Forever: access is unlimited and the video lessons remain available on all your devices.
Can I buy only some of the lessons?
Yes. On Osteocom each lesson can also be purchased individually.
What language is the course in?
The course comes in two versions, one in English and one in Italian, sold separately on Osteocom.
How is it different from the in-person course?
The online course presents the entire digital workflow on video, to watch whenever you like. The #zeromicrons in-person course lasts 6 days in Gravedona ed Uniti, where you work on the protocols in class with the teachers, in a small group.
Can I get a refund?
Osteocom guarantees a refund within 15 days of purchase.
