03/27/2020 The Ultimate In-House Aligner and Digital Workflow Course
JOIN OUR PRIORITY LIST
IS THIS COURSE FOR ME?
If you are already using digital technology in your practice and want to offer in-house aligners for mild to moderate cases but have no time to figure it out by yourself or just feel too overwhelmed to get started, this course is for you!
WHY SHOULD I MAKE MY OWN ALIGNERS?
- ELIMINATE OVERHEAD: Considerably reduce expenses by cutting your clear aligner lab bills.
- STAY AHEAD OF THE GAME: In-House Lab Technology is evolving rapidly, jump in before everyone else.
- START TREATMENT FAST: Start treatment in days (or the same day if you’re a ninja), instead of waiting for weeks.
- CONTROL EVERYTHING: Have full control of aligner cases and get the exact results you envision – on your own terms.
- STAND OUT FROM COMPETITION: Create buzz and differentiate yourself by offering your very own branded aligners.
- FLEXIBILITY: Replace or add aligners quickly and on-demand.
- HAPPIER PATIENTS: Sit back, relax, and let those raving patients do your marketing for you.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
CASE SET UP
We’ll dive deep into case setup and all its intricacies. We’ll spend a substantial amount of time with you actually setting up several cases types so that by the time you leave, you can do it on your own.
3D PRINTING
CLEAR ALIGNERS
THE CAMPFIRE
WHY WE'RE LEADING THE WAY
1. We Stand Alone
2. We're Personal
We are limited to 14 attendees only and the course will take place in Dr. Cope’s newly remodeled private practice (including his digital lab), which allows for a level of instruction and participation that is unparalleled.
3. We're Objective
We’ll compare various hardware and software options in a unbiased manner so you can decide what’s best for your practice.
PREREQUISITES
- You must have a comprehensive understanding of orthodontic biomechanics with at least 2 years of full-time orthodontic practice and advanced training.
- You must have an advanced understanding of aligner attachment design and placement during the treatment of full aligner cases. We’ll dive deep into some subjects that will require you to be on your game.
- You’ll be required to bring your own Windows computer meeting the minimum specifications for the Windows software used. Don’t worry, specific details of the software installation will be sent to you in advance of the course. We won’t have time to offer any IT technical support or software installation troubleshooting, so you’ll need to have your computer setup and ready to go.
WHO IS JASON B. COPE?
From Distraction Osteogenesis and TADs to TECH
Internationally acclaimed for his pioneering research and clinical techniques on Distraction Osteogenesis and TADs, Dr. Jason B. Cope is also widely known for being a perfectionist, not only for his orthodontic cases, but for everything he does. Although his name is synonymous with TADs, he was also one of the first orthodontists to implement digital technology into his practice and to deliver a turnkey solution to
in-house aligners and indirect bonding. He’s also a key leader in helping develop digital products and software available in orthodontics today.
Dr. Cope has spent the last two and half years perfecting the digital workflow of intra-oral scanning, digital case setup, 3D printing, and fabrication/delivery of in-house aligners and indirect bonding trays. Dr. Cope wasn’t overly interested in clear aligner treatment until he felt that he could truly control every aspect of treatment and his final results. With an in-house digital workflow, that time is now.
His digital learning curve came with lots of expense and trial and error, and he wants to keep you from hitting the wall by attempting to learn the process from scratch. He uses his experience to help you to quickly incorporate digital orthodontics in your office while avoiding the mistakes he made.
During this course, Dr. Cope will show you what he considers the best in technology available and the most user-friendly software. He’ll also show you how to streamline your workflow in the most seamless manner possible so you can achieve consistent results without the frustration of the learning curve he experienced.

COURSE OUTLINE
Overview of the software and hardware necessary to successfully implement your own digital workflow, including a discussion of the major and minor players in each category.
Each participant will perform or experience all aspects of the digital workflow from digital case setup to delivering aligners on patients.
All participants will use 2 commercially available software applications to setup their own cases for retainers and aligners and create print-ready files. EasyRX is a web-based software that will be used to manage the digital workflow. ULab is a Windows-based software that will be used to setup retainer and aligner cases. Note: ULab is currently only available for commercial use in the US. It will be available for use at the course, but it may not be available for use outside the US. If you have questions, please contact ULab directly at [email protected]
All phases of aligner fabrication will be demonstrated – Etch templates, attachment templates, template loading, and packaging.
We’ll troubleshoot and discuss as we go through each step. You’ll learn invaluable tips and hacks that we’ve learned from day-to-day experience.
During the course, attendees will:
– Use STL files to setup their cases in several ways. A) Using EasyRX web-based software to submit, manage, and track their aligners or other appliances to their in-house lab or external lab; B) Using ULab Windows-based software for in-house retainer or aligner setups with attachment design, basing, labelling, and outputting print-ready files.
– Several of these cases will then be sent to the 3D printer for model printing and subsequent clear retainer or aligner fabrication.
