Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology has become an essential pillar in modern dentistry, significantly improving clinical outcomes. This technology enables precise digital design and fabrication of dental restorations such as crowns and bridges, reducing human errors and enhancing accuracy, which leads to improvements in function, durability, and aesthetics.
Dr. Khaled Saudi, a lecturer in the Conservative Dentistry Department at the College of Dentistry and Oral Medicine at Nahda University, has won third place in the E-Poster competition for the best research at the national level. He participated in the scientific research titled “Pulpal repair after direct pulp capping with new bio ceramic materials: A comparative histological study.”
The competition was held during the 6th International Cairo Dental Conference, which took place from February 24-27, to enhance the technical and digital aspects of dentistry and exchange research experiences among various professors from Egyptian, Arab, and international universities.
“The Faculty of Dentistry of Nahda University organized the First Upper Egypt Dental Conference, in collaboration with the Dental Colleges of Beni Suef and Fayoum Universities, from February 22 to 24, 2023. The conference was held at the Noria Resort on the banks of Lake Qarun in Fayoum Governorate.”

This comes as a support from the three universities for scientific research and encouragement of research efforts that serve the community. It is necessary that the university’s professors, researchers, and scientists in various fields play an active role in reforming the community and providing scientific solutions to the problems that afflict society.
The conference, held over the course of three days, included numerous scientific presentations and lectures by a select group of professors from the participating universities, as well as professors from Cairo, Ain Shams, and Misr International Universities.
