This competition was organized to promote the development and spread of digital dentistry. Digital dentistry refers to the digitization of dental care and treatment. Currently, digital technology is actively used in all processes at dental clinical sites, including understanding the patient's oral structure, designing and planning dental prostheses, and manufacturing them. Through this, dentists can perform faster and more accurate diagnoses and procedures, and patients can receive optimized treatment services tailored to their unique oral conditions and symptoms.

Osstem Implant plans to review various clinical cases and reflect them in education on digital prosthetics through this contest, which aligns with the trend of digital transformation in prosthetic treatment. The contest is divided into a general division for dentists and practicing dental technicians, and a student division for dental technology majors. Participants will be recruited until the 31st of this month. Subsequently, participants must submit a PPT presentation on the theme of 'Anterior Esthetic Prosthesis Case,' including prosthesis production plans and processes, by October 31st.

The general division will recruit 200 participants, and the student division will recruit 60 participants. After evaluation, 20 participants from the general division and 6 from the student division will advance to the final stage, which will be held in the form of a presentation at the headquarters in Magok, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, on December 21st. All finalists will be awarded prizes, including prize money and clinical research support funds, and even those who do not advance to the finals but submit materials will receive a separate participation prize.

Jo In-ho, Director of the Osstem Implant Dental Research Institute, who is overseeing this event, said, “The clinical cases containing the valuable experiences and know-how of the test participants will not only serve as a catalyst for the advancement of the digital esthetic prosthesis field but also enhance our company's educational standards and provide clues for the development and improvement of related products, ultimately contributing to providing better medical services to patients.”
