Dr Andrew Ip

It is no secret that 3D printing and digital dentistry are taking the world. Digital modes of design and appliance fabrication are slowly taking over more traditional and analogue ways of practising dentistry.

I am a Sydney-based private general dentist who presents regularly on dental 3D printing and digital design. What started off as a hobby many years ago has now become a full-time passion for myself. My passion has taken me all around the world from the US, Europe, Asia and of course Australia where I am based.

From simple models to printing zirconia, I have printed almost all printable dental applications available in the global market and I am proud to have operated no less than 30 different printers so far in my career.

I have been teaching dentists and technicians how to integrate additive technologies to their workplaces for several years and I am a Key Opinion Leader for several digital dentistry-related companies. My knowledge is based on true hands-on experience. When I’m not designing a surgical guide, printing a splint or polishing a printed crown, you can find me glued to a screen designing printable table organisers or nesting a helmet for my cats in a slicer.

Amongst individual speaking events globally, I run a popular 3-day workshop (Zero to Hero) in Australia several times a year and I run a 2-day workshop in Malaysia usually once a year. I also manage the Bread and Butter Digital Dentistry Study Club in Sydney which has 4 nightly events and 3 one-day workshops per year.
