What Is The Dental Photography Conference?

Dental photography and scanning are a core part of diagnosis, treatment, documentation, and communication in modern dental practices. But it’s also a field that changes QUICKLY.

And that’s why we founded a conference. All to bring together digital dentists from all over the world to learn what’s new, what’s working, and how to apply it immediately to their practices not only in theory but also practically with a full day of workshops!

If you’re a dental technician, dentist, or practice dental photography in any other capacity, DPC is the event for YOU. Welcome to the community!

Learn from our top experts who have a passion for teaching.

Opening remarks Dr. Alessandro Devigus

Standards in Dental Photography Dr. Alessandro Devigus
The main purpose of dental photography is documentation. As much information as possible needs to be recorded under reproducible conditions. There must be standardization of the clinical camera, associated equipment, format, and light- ing of the intra- and extraoral views used in dental photography. The standards described in the 1980s by Wolfgang Bengel are still valid, but they need to be updated and adapted to align with new technologies and procedures.

Today, dental photographs can already be combined with extra- and intraoral scans or cone beam computed tomography images. It seems that three-dimensional (3D) scanning of soft and hard tissue has several advantages over two-dimensional (2D) photography. 3D documentation is already enhancing and will maybe some day replace conventional 2D documentation in our daily work.
11:0011:45
BaseLine Oriented Facial Imaging Dr. Panagiotis Bazos
The diagnostic template serves as the point of origin for any facially generated treatment plan in the modern restorative practice. Thus an accurate and precise maxillo-mandibular three dimensional spatial registration will provide the dental team with a flawless workflow, maximizing efficiency and effectiveness, when working in either the conventional (analogue) and/or contemporary (digital) modes. The position of the occlusal plane as it relates to the patient and the articulator is an essential link for achieving the functional and esthetic goals of the anticipated treatment. Patient specific anatomic craniofacial landmarks within the frontal, transverse and sagittal planes will be thouroughly explored and analyzed.

Attendees will learn how to mitigate transfer errors and increase accuracy via specific photographic (and radiographic) protocols in addition to utilising a customised registration, aiding both clinicians and technicians to systematically manage the proper spatial orientation of the maxillary cast.

The techniques being explored will include conventional photography, stereoscopy, photogrammetry and 3D scanning.

Alternatives to DSLR Louis Hardan
Photography is powerful in dentistry, its numerous applications such as diagnosis and treatment planning, legal documentation, publishing and lecturing has made digital photography a standard of care in modern dental practices.

Till few months the DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) cameras were the only way in dentistry to take high quality macro images.

Recently, smartphones have come a long way in digital photography due to recent technology development.

The purpose of this lecture and the workshop are to demonstrate the capacity of these devices to take high quality dental images for our daily documentation and to present a new device for mobile photography: the Smile Lite MDP, which is very simple to use and allows to take high quality dental pictures with mobile phones.

Those pictures are useful in different types of documentation and communication, in a feasible teachable and repeatable way, by everyone and for everyday practice.

Bring your cell phone and learn how to take clinical images during the workshop. The workshop will be held twice on Saturday morning and afternoon.

"Making it look great" get the best out of your pictures Dr. Javier Tapia Guadix
14:3015:15
Photomicrogrammetry for educational purposes in Dentistry Dr. Carlos A. Ayala Paz
Photogrammetry is commonly used to digitize fields, buildings and archaeological pieces. Merging a sequence of photographs taken at different angles and planes around the object can achieve the same result as a gigantic scanner.

But what happens in very small pieces where the depth of field is compromised? Photomicrogrammetry is a combined technique that allows the construction of digital three-dimensional objects. This could be a new way to help understand morphology with accurate data and make 3d replicas.

This conference aims to give a broad view of the processes involved in the process of creating 3d objects.

Dental Photography@Work ZTM Joachim Werner
Why do you do that and what is it important for?
What do you want to achieve with the pictures?
Which intention do I pursue with the pictures?
How much time do you want to invest?
Is a mobile phone camera enough in the end?
Product photography and patient photography with the same equipment?
Documentation and emotion. Why?
Image processing...cheat or optimize?
My recommendation for the right equipment.
 
I have been working for over 25 years now.
with dental photography.
One of my most frequent problems was it,
in a relatively short time high-quality photos,
both in the field of product photography,
as well as in patient photography.
In Budapest I would like "LIFE",
my concept of dental photography.
And give answers to the above questions.
18:0020:00
