How do we teach the next generation of dental professionals to understand tooth anatomy while embracing modern digital technology?
As dental education continues to evolve, one principle remains unchanged: technology can support the learning process, but it cannot replace a strong understanding of anatomy.
Join DigiDent Global Academy for an engaging conversation with Jessica Birrell, CDT, Master Ceramist and Digital Director at Roseman University, hosted by Dr. Manish Chhabra, Founder of DigiDent Global Academy.
With more than 27 years of experience in dental laboratory technology, Jessica brings a valuable perspective on the relationship between traditional hands-on techniques, dental craftsmanship, and modern digital workflows.
Together, we'll explore how immersive technology can make practical dental learning more accessible while preserving the foundational skills every dental professional needs.
