OHI-S Online school Exocad from A to Z

8 lessons + 1 free (14h 3min)

In this course, you will learn how to design dental prosthesis using Exocad.

After this training, you will be able to:

– Design fixed restorations on natural teeth: anatomical and telescopic crowns, bridges, inlays, veneers

– Design individual abutments; bar constructions and other suprastructures for prosthetics on implants

– Do Digital smile design using a photo

– Design occlusal splints in a digital protocol using a virtual articulator.

The course completely covers all the issues of creating common prosthetic units and is intended for:

– Dentists and dental technicians

– Experienced and junior Exocad users.

The OHI‑S Online School: Exocad from A to Z is best for dentists, prosthodontists, orthodontists, oral surgeons, and dental technicians who want structured, CE‑accredited training in the complete digital dentistry workflow using Exocad software. It is designed to take learners from beginner to advanced levels, covering diagnosis, design, and manufacturing of functional and aesthetic restorations.
