Thanks to the rapid development of the digital technology, photography is becoming much easier recently.  However, in reality, the science of the photography is complicated; thus, many of us are still struggling how to take good photographs.  In this hands-on course, award-winning professional photographer and ceramist, Naoki Aiba, CDT will address:

  • What dentists and technicians need to know about  photography for esthetic communication
  • How to take shade and photos
  • How to maximize the use of the photographs into our daily work

 

The hands-on course starts with the lecture explaining the basic science of photography, basic technique for dental photography, use of shade tabs, and photo protocol for esthetic communication.  After the lecture, your camera and flash systems will be calibrated by Mr. Aiba.  Then, everyone exercises photographing the Basic Protocol™ to find the setting to achieve best exposure for both intraoral and bench photography.  After the photo-shooting, pictures will be imported into your laptop to evaluate, diagnose, and exercise the Photoshop workflow.  On the second day, you will be fabricating a zirconia single central with Creation ZI-F on using the photos taken on the first day.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learning step-by-step shade taking procedure and photo session.
  • Setting up your camera for best exposure and white balance.
  • Photoshop workflow for esthetic analysis for single central case.
