The event is open to the national dental industry, adopting a "Doctor + Technician" duo team model, and solicits unpublished original oral case reports.

On the product support front, GF MEDICAL GROUP's brand Alberry will provide two types of implant restoration support packages for participating teams: the aesthetic single-tooth group can apply for Alberry Custom Abutment, and the multi-tooth group can apply for Alberry Implant Bridge Framework and Alberry bar. It is important to note that all products in the support packages are only for use in the production of cases for this event. When submitting a case, teams must simultaneously upload actual photos of the materials used for record verification and cancellation. Applications require recommendation, certification, and review from the support package provider, Xueya.com, or one of the five regional mentors.
Behind this support mechanism is GF MEDICAL GROUP's long-term investment in "doctor-technician collaboration." GF MEDICAL GROUP stated that implant restoration is a highly collaborative work between doctors and technicians. From design to processing, the judgment and responsibility borne by the technician behind every micron-level precision are also part of the diagnostic and treatment outcome—only this part of the work has long been out of the spotlight. The design of this "Doctor-Technician Co-Show" is precisely intended to make this part of the work visible through cases. Having been deeply involved in custom processing for over 30 years, GF MEDICAL GROUP's support this time is another practice of its core philosophy of "doctor-technician collaboration."
