“…STL files from intraoral digital scanning can be superimposed with the CBCT file to create a fused 3‐D model of the patient's hard and soft tissues. On top of that, a 3‐D extraoral facial scan can be added to create a 3‐D virtual patient . This 3‐D virtual patient is a powerful diagnostic and implant treatment planning tool that can also be used for patient communication to achieve a patient's approval of a proposed treatment plan …”

This article presents an integrated digital workflow that was implemented for the implant-prosthodontic rehabilitation of three edentulous patients with monolithic zirconia prostheses. Monolithic zirconia has been successfully incorporated in implant prosthodontics in an effort to reduce the technical complications associated with bilayered ceramics. This workflow simplifies design and fabrication of the zirconia prostheses. However, caution should be taken during CAD planning of the prosthesis to make sure the zirconia cylinder is sufficiently thick at the interface with the titanium insert. Additionally, when cutback is planned for facial porcelain veneering, the functional occluding cusps and incisal edges should be fabricated in monolithic zirconia to avoid chipping.

This article describes an expedited protocol illustrating a digital workflow for full arch implant rehabilitation of the extremely atrophic mandible. Flapless implant placement with a surgical template generated from virtual planning was followed by immediate loading with a fixed prosthesis. Digital impression/digitization of the working cast and CAD/CAM technology were used to mill the definitive prosthesis. From guided surgery to the definitive rehabilitation only three appointments were necessary. This digital workflow can enhance patient acceptance and comfort and serve as an alternative treatment in the indicated clinical scenario. (J Esthet Restor Dent 29:178-188, 2017).

“…3 Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) techniques enable dentists to fabricate surgical implant templates and prostheses (both interim and definitive) in a highly accurate and efficient manner. [4][5][6][7] Using varied digital technologies a virtual patient can be created and utilized to aid in dental diagnosis and advanced treatment simulations. 7 A virtual patient is created by superimposing varied 3D images from an actual patient.…”

The virtual patient, a unique computer simulation of the patient's face, teeth, oral mucosa, and bone, provides an extraordinary mechanism for digital dental implant surgery planning and prosthetic design. However, the seamless registration of digital scans with functional information in the context of a virtual articulator remains a challenge. This report describes the treatment of a 47‐year‐old male with full‐mouth guided immediate implant placement and immediate loading of CAD/CAM interim prostheses. Utilizing a novel digital workflow, a multifactorial registration of the vertical dimension of occlusion, centric occlusion, and facebow record were completed digitally and paired within a digital articulator. Utilizing this innovative approach, a complex treatment plan and procedure was executed smoothly with a successful prosthetic outcome demonstrating good fit, occlusion, esthetics, and patient reported satisfaction.
