PROSEC Scientific Board
Im Scientific Board der PROSEC gGmbH sind ausschließlich erfahrene und kompetente Experten aus Wissenschaft, Zahnarztpraxis und Dentallabor tätig. Sie zeichnen sich aus durch ihre herausragende Erfahrung und Kompetenz im Bereich keramischer und metallfreier Versorgungen. Im Mittelpunkt ihrer Bemühungen steht die Optimierung der zahnärztlich-zahntechnischen Arbeitsabläufe, um die Versorgungsqualität nachhaltig zu verbessern. Das PROSEC Scientific Board gliedert sich in die Arbeitsbereiche Wissenschaft und Anwendung.
Fachgremium Wissenschaft
Die Aufgaben des Fachgremiums Wissenschaft umfassen das Erarbeiten von neuen Qualitätsstandards für vollkeramische beziehungsweise metallfreie Rehabilitationen. Funktion, Ästhetik, Patientennutzen, Materialverträglichkeit, Praxistauglichkeit und die Vorteile der CAD/CAM-gestützten Fertigung im Zusammenspiel mit manuellen Herstellungsmethoden werden dabei stets berücksichtigt.
Fachgremium Anwendung
Das Fachgremium Anwendung kümmert sich um die praxisnahe Fortbildung der Anwenderinnen und Anwender in Labor und Praxis. Das Behandlungs- beziehungsweise Fertigungsprotokoll wird dafür Schritt für Schritt in Richtlinien dokumentiert. Konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen werden erarbeitet, wo evidenzbasierte Entscheidungen noch nicht möglich sind.
Vernetzung und Organisation
Zu den Aufgaben des Scientific Boards gehört auch die Repräsentation von PROSEC in der wissenschaftlichen Community, die Initialisierung, Förderung und Betreuung von wissenschaftlichen Aktivitäten, Projekten und Studien, die Vorbereitung und Durchführung der Jahressitzungen mit den Fachgremiumsvorsitzenden, der PROSEC Partner Meetings und der PROSEC Partner Workshops.
Zwischen den Sitzungen üben die Vorsitzenden die Funktionen des Scientific Boards aus.
