Science Quote: Dr. Barbara Sobczak on the digital workflow
This article illustrates an advanced digital workflow for accurate and efficient immediate full-arch restoration with an esthetically and anatomically adapted natural tooth-like prosthesis. A key characteristic was efficiently integrating and interlinking the prosthetic and surgical workflows via denture replica surgical guides as landmarks for scan registration. This approach allowed for accurate implant placement and efficient and detailed anatomy-based chairside prosthetic planning, and for the manufacturing of the provisional and final restorations under detailed consideration of implant restoration, and the patient’s macro-aesthetic and soft tissue anatomy.
