With the theme of “GO 3D. Your Story Starts Here,” the event is designed to share the perspectives
of knowledgeable industry experts about exciting and relevant topics regarding 3D applications in dentistry with

a concentrated focus on airway evaluations. The program will provide tips and best practices for this technology and its applications for general dentistry and dental specialties.
Some featured topics at this year’s event include:
  • “The Use of CBCT Planning and Guided Surgery Applications to Improve Quality of Life After Traumatic Injury” by Dr. Scott Ganz
  • “DICOM Multiplanar Reconstructed Images —What Do You See, and is it Important?” By Dr. Bruce Howerton
  • “Orthodontic: Unlocking the Power of CBCT: Beyond Basics and into the Future” by Dr. Sean Carlson
  • “Airway: Their Story, CBCT and Airway-Centered Treatment Planning” by Dr. Juan Carlos Quintero
    Attendees will also hear keynote speakers, Dr. Cynthia Brattesani and Dr. John Graham discuss the “whys” of 3D imaging and their personal experiences on the journey to a 3D-enriched practice. Besides the clinical aspects of 3D imaging, Dr. Lou Shuman will explore practice marketing opportunities using social media, and Christine Taxin will offer insurance and billing tips that could lead to a smoother reimbursement process.
    In addition to the educational sessions, networking opportunities will offer attendees time to interact with colleagues and industry speakers, explore partner exhibits, and visit the i-CAT booth to see the latest 3D products and services. An i-CAT User’s Meeting on April 16 will feature a product and technology update, including discussions about how to select the best scan for each patient; optimize the use and performance of a 3D system; and select the best 3D scan protocol, resolution and field of view for each patient. A variety of other topics will also be covered, including the integration of the 3D system into the practice, and best practices for marketing the system to help drive increased patient traffic.
