Digital workflows in Dental Implantology

From initial diagnosis to case planning and treatment

14 CPD Certified Hours

In recent years, the rise of digital technologies such as Cone Beam CT, Intraoral Scanning and Rapid Prototyping and their implementation into everyday Dentistry, has led Prosthodontics into a new era .Particularly in the field of Implant Prosthodontics, it is now possible to complete the restoration following a full digital workflow without the need for a physical stone or plastic cast. The increase in IOS accuracy, the advent of new aesthetic monolithic materials and their improved production methods has allowed dentists to realize a Scan-Plan-Produce-Fit workflow that promises shorter and fewer clinical and laboratory steps, increased aesthetics, greater patient acceptance and thus greater overall treatment efficiency. This Seminar will present the steps involved in this workflow for planning, implant placing and restoring single and multiple, fixed implant prostheses.
