Undergraduate Dentistry Study Program Expands Knowledge in Digital Dentistry for Periodontics

The Undergraduate Dentistry Study Program at the Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University, held a guest lecture themed "Digital Dentistry in Periodontics." The event was conducted in a hybrid format, with the primary hub located at the Dean’s Office building on the Bukit Jimbaran campus (October 29, 2026).

The objective was to broaden perspectives on the evolution of digital technology and its application within the field of periodontics. The utilization of digital tools—such as intraoral scanning, digital imaging, periodontal tissue analysis, and technology-driven treatment planning—offers opportunities to enhance the precision of diagnosis, treatment planning, and the evaluation of periodontal care.

The event commenced with opening remarks from the Coordinator of the Undergraduate Dentistry Study Program, Drg. I Gusti Agung Dyah Ambarawati, M.Biomed., who also officially opened the session. The guest lecture featured Dr. drg. Rezmelia Sari, M.Sc., Sp.Perio., Subsp. R.P.I.D. (K), from Universitas Gadjah Mada, who presented on the topic of Digital Dentistry in Periodontics.

Through this initiative, students are expected to gain an understanding of how digital innovations support more accurate, efficient, and integrated periodontal care. Furthermore, the lecture served as a platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience between academics and practitioners, aimed at preparing dental professionals who are adaptable to technological advancements and future challenges in oral healthcare. This activity is intended to foster the ongoing development of scientific knowledge, research, and the application of digital technology within both periodontal education and clinical practice.

The guest lecture was attended by students and faculty members from the Undergraduate Dentistry Study Program at the Faculty of Medicine, Udayana University, and concluded with the presentation of certificates.
