The High-Performance Hygiene Room

This webinar explores how dental hygienists and therapists can transform their surgery into a high-performance hygiene room by combining clinical excellence, efficient workflows, patient-centred care, and modern technology.

The session will focus on how clinicians can elevate the quality of preventive care, improve patient experience, and increase their value within the dental practice, aligning with the philosophy of becoming a Dental Asset.

The appointment will be built around a simple Diagnose, Treat, Follow-up workflow. The Acteon OPUS and the Acteon C50 intraoral camera will be presented as the core technologies that make this workflow efficient, comfortable, and visible to the patient.
