Bridging Analog and Digital: Classic Restorative Principles for Today’s Practice

Bridging Analog and Digital: Classic Restorative Principles for Today’s Practice is organized by Dr. Travel Seminars, LLC and will be held from Apr 01 - 10, 2027 at Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) Jade, Yokohama, Tokyo, Japan.

About the Seminar:
Join father-and-son prosthodontists Dr. Keith Progebin and Dr. Jamie Progebin for a unique joint lecture exploring how timeless restorative principles seamlessly integrate with today’s digital innovations. Drawing from real cases in everyday private practice, they demonstrate how analog foundations and modern technologies complement—rather than replace—one another. Attendees will gain practical insights into delivering predictable, esthetic, and durable outcomes in a rapidly evolving clinical landscape.

Course Content:

1. Foundations of analog implant dentistry and its evolution into guided and navigated surgical workflows
2. Navigated surgery and prosthetics, including state-of-the-art fast-track protocols, digital scanning, and photogrammetry
3. Aging of implant cases and patients: critical factors influencing long-term clinical success
4. Complications related to improper diagnosis, technique errors, and material failures
5. The future of implant dentistry, including robotic surgery, facial scanning, and 3D printing versus milling technologies

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand comprehensive diagnostic and virtual treatment-planning methods from a coordinated surgical–restorative team perspective
2. Identify key principles for implementing a multidisciplinary approach, from single-unit restorations to full-mouth rehabilitation
3. Evaluate restorative material options for abutment selection and definitive prosthetic solutions
4. Recognize emerging trends in implant dentistry informed by over 35 years of clinical experience and evidence-based practice
